Every time Blitzen Trapper comes to town I seem to find myself somewhere else. I haven't caught them since they sold out the Earl in support of Furr but they've produced two great albums since then generating a great repertoire of tunes to showcase. American Goldwing is a strong contender for my year end top ten list. They will be joined by Dawes who make fine records too. Blitzen Trapper - Love The Way [...]
Triple bills can be a good or bad thing - sometimes, you really only care about the headliner. Trudging through two opening sets from bands you don't care about can be a chore. Luckily, last night's show at the wonderful Variety Playhouse was the good kind of triple bill – the kind where each band brings plenty to the table. Headlining the show was one of the most consistently great live bands of the past decade, Okkervil River , and before they even started, folks in attendance were treated to a show from our own Best Live Act of [...]
Hello, my name is Glenda Harris, and I am writing this in the hopes of saving young people from the horrors that await them in the guise of "fun dance-oriented indie pop". My son, Sam, was listening to the talented Justin Bieber on his Pandora radio account. Unfortunately, it seems as if the devil was picking the songs. The next song that Satan chose was titled "Enemy Gene" by Of Montreal . Well after he begged and pleaded I agreed to accompany him to see this " Of Montreal " at the Variety Playhouse. [...]

Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Oct. 2 at Variety Playhouse
What's in a name? If you're Stephen Malkmus apparently not quite enough. Last year's Pavement reunion show at the Tabernacle sold out in no time at all and was the event of the season for many. Despite just releasing what may be the best record he has ever made while away from that band, you would think that Malkmus was returning to town under the cover of night so little has been made of his coming appearance this Sunday at the Variety Playhouse. Sure there's been a mention here [...]

Live Review: Okkervil River, Titus Andronicus at Variety Playhouse in Atlanta (5/31)

Okkervil River + Titus Andronicus, Variety Playhouse
I started this blog maybe six years ago when I was writing a senior honors thesis and needed space for non-academic writing. Somehow, it became vaguely academic, because I don't operate in any other mode, and eventually I just grew tired of keeping up with everything. That and I started blogging elsewhere about a number of other things. Now that I'm starting the dissertation, I'll probably come back to it again, because writing about music gets my other geeky juices flowing. And ew, get your mind out of the gutter. For those of you who still have this [...]
Watch This: Okkervil River – "Wake and Be Fine"
