The first stanza of North American touring in support of last August’s ‘Mirror Traffic’ skipped a number of the continent’s more glittering metropolises, and that’s obviously something Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks were eager to correct in early 2012. Plus, they get to visit Boulder, too!

The Young are taking a short break from putting finishing touches on their 2nd album — and first for Matador — with a bunch of shows on the West Coast. Around the time of Matador’s 21st anniversary shows in Vegas going on sale, we received brutal, vicious criticism from locals who felt their cultural hotbed was routinely being passed over by our touring bands. OK, then. The Young are playing Vegas’ Beauty Bar (perhaps the place where the term “truth in advertising” originated) and I fully expect several hundred of the city’s most passionate music fans to be in attendance.
(I also believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and that the Planet Of The Apes movies are a prophecy).
Here’s the full schedule :
Wed 1/4 – Yucca Tap Room, Tempe, AZ
Thu 1/5 – Soda Bar, San Diego, CA
Fri 1/6 – Cellar Door, Visalia, CA
Sat 1/7 – Bottom Of The Hill, SF, CA
Mon 1/9 – The Satellite, Los Angeles
Tue 1/10 – The Smell, Los Angeles
Wed 1/11 – Beauty Bar, Las Vegas, NV
Thu 1/12 – Solar Culture Gallery, Tucson AZ
Fri 1/4 – Mohawk, Austin TX (with Balaclavas)
Hoping to overshadow Sunday’s bout of Danzig-baiting at Austin’s Fun Fun Fun Festival as quickly as possible, Ted Leo & The Pharmacists can confirm the following year-end dates, with tickets going on sale Wednesday at noon eastern time.
We’ve already teased you with the new material coming your way in November from Esben and the Witch. We announced the release of the Hexagons EP and that the band would be a special event happening on November 4th, but just to keep you all on your toes here’s the jump on what’ll be starting next Friday.
Lasting for 6 days, with 6 showings per day, Esben and the Witch present the Hexagons cinema – an online event featuring the band showcasing the upcoming EP in full and for free. The footage was shot in the Duke of York’s cinema in Esben’s hometown of Brighton, which also happend to be the oldest continually operating cinema in the UK.
Tickets for this online treat are free, but limited, so to grab your seat in one of the performance you’ll need to head over to The Hexagons Cinema and book now.
You can pre-order the Hexagons EP on the Matador Store, the remaining 2011 tour dates are:
November 16th – Corsica Studios, London, UK
November 18th – Festival Saint-Ghetto, Bern, Switzerland
November 19th – Amalgame, Yverdon, Switzerland
(I think I heard someone backstage talking about people showing up for a gallery exhibition for all the wrong reasons!)
Tickets for Yo La Tengo’s annual Hanukkah residency at Hoboken’s Maxwell’s go on sale tomorrow at noon eastern time. You can purchase online via Ticketfly.com or in person at Other Music (NYC) or Tunes (Hoboken). All proceeds will be donated to a varied list of Yo La Tengo-approved charities. As has been the practice in years past, Ira, Georgia and James will be joined on these bills by an impressive array of all-star musical and comedic talent. At the risk of siphoning some of Brooklyn Vegan’s comment traffic, feel free to make your wild guesses, but please be advised we’re not forwarding them to the band. They’ve been planning this kind of thing for a while — they really know what they’re doing.
Fucked Up’s first-ever performance of David Comes To Life in its entirety is SOLD OUT. That’s at Le Poisson Rouge, on Monday, November 14, and the band will be playing in the round.
They have now added a second show on Tuesday, November 15 at Warsaw in Brooklyn, playing David Comes To Life – but not, sadly, in the round – not available there. However, Titus Andronicus will be supporting at both shows.
Only the most cynical of observers would look at the above item, taken from the venerable Hoboken Patch, and conclude this was some sort of sleazy ploy to promote the upcoming Condo Fucks show at the Mercury Lounge (November 4, supporting The Glands). Except it is. On our part, anyway. Still, you’d like to think we live in a world where showing interest in community matters was the rule rather than the exception, that Ira could attend such meetings without being harassed by local reporters, photographers or his own record label.
a) The Young are playing this Saturday night at Austin, TX’s Emo’s (inside) with Pierced Arrows and Don’t. This post is simply a cheap excuse to show off the snazzy flyer for the event.
b) the Friday, November 11 date at the Cake Shop is no longer happening. Instead, the Young’s first NYC show in nearly a year will take place the same evening supporting Kurt Vile & The Violators at Webster Hall.
On Monday, November 14 in New York, for the first time ever, Fucked Up will be performing their critically acclaimed album DAVID COMES TO LIFE in its entirety. This will be the inaugural live performance for many of the 18 songs. In addition, the band will be performing in the round. As if that’s not enough, Titus Andronicus will be opening.
The event happens at Le Poisson Rouge in Manhattan. Buy tickets here.

It’s been nearly a year since Matador’s recently announced signing from Austin, TX, The Young played somewhere within shouting distance of label HQ. As such, some ofus thought it was an appropriate time to force the reclusive quartet * into playing 4 shows in 3 days. Details can be found below ; The Young’s first Matador full-length and 2nd album overall is tentatively scheduled for the first half of 2012. (also – they’re playing Austin’s Emo’s inside room on October 22 with Pierced Arrows and Don’t)
Friday, Nov. 11 – Cake Shop, NYC NY
Saturday, Nov. 12 – Maxwell’s, Hoboken, NJ, 3pm matinee (with The Sonics)
Saturday, Nov. 12 – Union Pool, Brooklyn, NY, 10pm (with Endless Boogie)
Sunday, Nov. 13 – Kung Fu Necktie, Philadelphia, PA (with Office Of Future Plans, Bells)
(* – this is the first and last time we’ll ever refer to this band — or anyone else — as a “reclusive quartet”)
The above clip — and building anticipation for tonight’s performance takes just a little bit of the sting out of the way we’ve been publicly outed as censors of the lowest variety.
In addition to previously announced August dates in Ottawa and Philly, Thurston Moore + ensemble will be playing LA, Big Sur and San Francisco in late September. If you’re attending the Masonic Lodge show, please be advised it’s taking place at the Hollywood Forever Cemetary and NOT the offices of Hollywood Is Calling (though perhaps that’s an idea we’ll save for someone else’s future record release event)
Sun, 8/28 – Ottawa, ONT – Ottawa Folk Festival
Tue, 8/30 – Philadelphia, PA – Sanctuary @ First Unitarian Church
Tue, 9/27 – Los Angeles, CA – Masonic Lodge @ Hollywood Forever Cemetery (tickets)
Thu, 9/29 – Big Sur, CA – Henry Miller Library
Fri, 9/30 – San Francisco, CA – Hardly Strictly Bluegrass (tickets)
Following the near-instant sell out of an August 26 date at New York City’s Webster Hall, Cat Power will be appearing at the same venue on Thursday, August 25. There’s a presale for American Express cardholders starting tomorrow morning, and any remaining tickets are on general sale this Friday at noon. If you’d like to call these shows a tune up for the Sunday, August 28 Loufest date in St. Louis, MO, there’s really nothing we can do to stop you.
Though we don’t have any news for yet regarding the new Cat Power album, please be assured neither Chan or ourselves have forgotten the matter — when there’s something to announce, we promise we’ll not be shy about it.
(Ted, shown in his natural summer habitat, ie. a large outdoor gig in New York City, more specifically, South Street Seaport, two weekends ago)
Lest anyone believe a recent run of solo shows would mean an autumn of leaf-blowing, strange pagan ritualsand pumpkin carving for the powerhouse quartet known as Ted Leo And The Pharmacists, not so fast. Tickets for all of the gigs below are now available, and if you think there’s a conspicuous gap in the schedule during the weekend of November 5th and 6th, rest assured I have no idea what you’re talking about.

In about five hours, the stage of the beautiful new World Cafe Live at The Queen in Wilmington, DE (pictured above) will play host to Thurston Moore, playing a set of new material at the annual Non-Commvention. If you are not attending this august gathering of non-commercial radio’s best and brightest, take solace in the fact that you can listen to Thurston’s set on the air and Internetwaves of Philadelphia’s WXPN. If you’re in the area, tune in to 88.5FM. Anywhere else in the world, point your browser at xpn.org. Both of the above should be done at 11:55PM 11:40PM EDT to ensure maximum enjoyment.
So, the time of Primavera and ATP festival (sadly their last ever May weekender) rolls around again and a ton of our bands decide it’d also be a good time to visit our (at the moment, rather sunny) shores. Just like last year.

In what’s likely to be one of the hotter tickets of Summer 2011, Thurston Moore and Kurt Vile & The Violators are hooking up for 7 North American dates this July in support of both of their most recent album, the former’s upcoming ‘Demolished Thoughts’, and Vile’s wildly acclaimed ‘Smoke Ring For My Halo’. Additional dates for both — sadly, only playing in tandem from July 18 to the 30th — are listed below.
This also seems as opportune a time as any to suggest that you check out the new Facebook pages for Thurston and Kurt. You never know when the fateful day might arrive that a crucial bit of news, perhaps some leaked music, might appear over there instead of here.

The new Esben and the Witch video premiered yesterday on Pitchfork with several awkward figures shot on location around the Sussex coast by Brighton, England where the band reside when not on tour. The video provides both a visual representation of the Chorea affliction and a link to their Chorea EP artwork.

As announced on the official Coachella page, stage times are out now for all bands playing this weekends festival and you’ll find Matador and True Panther bands well represented, without any clashes (…hopefully) too!
Surrounded as we are by an ever-increasing number of cameras in our daily lives, we begin to lose ownership of our own images. Anonymous technology is analyzing, categorizing and archiving our very existence.
Interpol, in collaboration with David Lynch, Andi Watson, HPX and Wieden & Kennedy present a visual juxtaposition of the seen and the unseen. As the observer becomes the observed, the performance explores the deepening layers of covert surveillance, morphing data acquisition into visual beauty and questioning the fine line between the viewer and the voyeur.
Featuring the premiere of the David Lynch animation “I Touch A Red Button Man” for the song “Lights”, and utilizing real-time visual manipulation from Seattle-based HPX, the performance will be streamed live to the internet as well as to the audience at Coachella.
