Local Sounds
I don’t get the opportunity to attend many house shows, but when I do, I’m never disappointed. Last night, a few good friends of mine and I decided to go to one at the last minute and got there right as the final band started playing. All I have to say is that they were pretty amazing.
If you like Pocahaunted, Best Coast or Wavves, then The Diamond Center would probably do it for you...

BEST NEWS EVA
I just read on AP that Gaslight Anthem and Fake Problems are teaming up to release a brand new 7” of their performance of “Songs For Teenagers.”
It is said to be released for $5 on April 26th but the expected release date is April 11th
THERE ARE ONLY 2,500 copies. And only 500 copies of the coke bottle clear vinyl (only at Radio Cast).
This. Is. Awesome.

Johnny Whitney (of The Blood Brothers)
Though I’ve listened to The Blood Brothers, I had never heard this song until my roommate played it while we were in his car a few months back. There’s something about Johnny Whitney’s voice that just makes you want to keep listening…this song in particular. Check out The Blood Brothers along with Whitney’s Acoustic Mixtape. But for now, here’s “Blinding...

Young The Giant (Never fails to impress...)
Just posted is Young The Giant’s latest video with SPIN where they perform an acoustic version of “Islands” on the South Laguna Beach as the sun sets.
When talking to SPIN, frontman Sameer Gadhia said:

Yuck - The Wall.
…on Pitchfork’s TUNNELVISION.
Yuck is a band that I have recently come across. These guys come from New Jersey, Hiroshima and London…what a great combination!
I haven’t listened to them too much, but I really like what I’ve heard and this video done by Pitchfork gives a pretty good taste as to what they’re all about. If you like the Smith...

Fake Blood
Just listened to “Medieval” by Fake Blood for the second time ever and I bursted out laughing because I loved it so much the first time I heard it and I realize I was definitely not sober then. I can’t say that I like it as much now that I’m listening to it again, but it makes me laugh and I do admit…if I heard this at some sort of party, I can’t say I...

And then i saw that BRAHMS video and I had to follow you.
I saw them live with Passion Pit and Tokyo Police Club. That was the first time I heard them. I'm glad they're getting around.

So I have this thing with one of my best friends, Hannah, where we call each other “brah” or “brahms” as a joke (long story how that evolved). Anyways, she posted this video on my Facebook today. It’s “Brought It Out” by a band that goes by the name of BRAHMS.
Naturally, I had to honor my friendship with Hannah and post the video on here.

The National performing Fake Empire live in NYC (via MTV)
The National is fantastic and whenever I think of them now, I remember the fact that they played AT The National (venue) in Richmond last year. The National AT The National and I missed it. I deserve a slap in the face.
