I got interested in Young Prisms a few months ago when Michelle Broder Van Dyke wrote about them in the Chronicle, but I just got around to seeing them last weekend. Their Daytrotter session is worth checking out.
Liars “Scissor” is probably my favorite song of the year so far. It also has an haunting video. Liars also played the song on Tunnelvision.
Man I love Black Mountain. Well really I love anything Steven McBean touches. I wrote about his other project Pink Mountaintops about a year ago. “Old Fangs” from Black Mountain’s forthcoming record is a polished, organ and guitar psych jam.
Speaking of black things, the new Black Keys record Brothers is awesome.
And of course:
