    I am so obsessed with the song Two Dead Cops on the new Parquet Courts album. Really like the whole album but especially that song, Pathos Prairie and Berlin Got Blurry

    That's one hell of a duo

    I want to see Courtney Barnett live so badly

    it seems like one of those sites that they 'optimized' for tablet viewing. which I guess is fine, but Im old fashioned and use a laptop. to each their own a I guess.

    it has been interesting to see their broadening of music coverage since being purchased by conde nast last fall.

    My favorite band :tebow:

    Important update from Houndmouth:


    This is not the easiest news to share, but Katie Toupin is parting ways with Houndmouth. This is an amicable split, and Katie plans to pursue other opportunities.


    We (Matt, Shane, and Zak) wish Katie the absolute best in all her future endeavors and want to thank her for the years we spent together as bandmates and, more importantly, friends. When we all first met as teenagers, we never dreamed that music would bring the four of us together and take us as far as it has. It’s been a long journey, and the time has come for our paths to split. We encourage everyone reading this to continue to support her.


    FROM KATIE: I am incredibly thankful for all of our fans. Your relentless support has meant the world. We have been through so much together as a band, and none of it would have happened without the fans. I want to wish Houndmouth continued success. I would also like to ask the fans to continue to support me, along with the boys, as we go our separate ways.

    ADDITION: While this was the last message from our band as the original four members, all shows will continue on as planned. Katie will not be joining any future tours, but there will be multiple musicians joining Houndmouth on all future shows.

    I've really wanted to explore this band, but I became discouraged once I found out they have like 800 albums, so I've just put no effort into it so far

    Been doing this, this weekend. Just got back from Jamell Richardson and holy shitballs that was fun. Brave Baby, Blue Healer, Great Peacock, and Futurebirds were all great. And Col. Bruce, of course, but he's not at all new to me. First times seeing almost everyone else. I was pretty meh on The Weeks.

    not a bad first single off the upcoming August CD. don't see how they could make another album as good as Mind over Matter. Loved that CD and the 2 shows I saw on the tour

    we'll see

    I was looking through a list of rappers to see who I should check out after years of not listening to rap and every single album I looked up was 6.4 or higher
