      Chicagoist on Mark Bazer, Charlie Trotter's, Doug Glanville, Tracy Letts, Schadenfreude, The Jordan Years, Prescott Tolk, The Interview Show, @ The Hideout

      about 1 year ago

      Cave’s 2009 release Psychic Psummer started off quietly, but then leapt off the speaker with frantic krautrock and pulsating proto-punk, like a compromise between formed between The Stooges and Neu! more at chicagoist.com

      Chicagoist on Alla, photo.sans.nom. @ The Whistler

      about 1 year ago

      Allá did, in fact, take much of the audience on a jazz odyssey (we mean that in the best way possible) with fluid basslines and funky, Meters-like drumming. Allá created a glorious cacophony of sound, with new material invoking Kid A-era Radiohead. more at chicagoist.com

      Chicagoist on Radioclit, Kid Color, Black Holes, The Very Best @ Empty Bottle

      about 1 year ago

      Running through tracks like “Production” and “People Should Be More Aware” from their latest album, Sings The Browns, Bird Names were successful in creating sing-songy melodicism from oddball vocal work and booming, tom-tom heavy drums. more at chicagoist.com

      Chicagoist on Pelican, Miracle Condition, Medusa @ Empty Bottle

      about 1 year ago

      Miracle Condition, a quartet featuring former members of U.S. Maple. By focusing mostly on material from their self-titled debut LP, plus debuting a new song for the very first time, Miracle Condition put on a master class in musical economy. more at chicagoist.com

      Chicagoist on Future Islands, Lower Dens @ The Hideout

      about 1 year ago

      Lucky for us while it appears Future Islands has decided to define their sound using such a general -- and some may say pretentious -- term are really just a bunch of synth-pop music geeks from North Carolina. more at chicagoist.com

      Chicagoist on Yourself and The Air, Jookabox, YAWN @ Empty Bottle

      about 1 year ago

      YAWN's five-song EP introduced their new, electro-tribal sound, seemingly inspired by the Afro-pop of Vampire Weekend and the hypnotic synth of Animal Collective. more at chicagoist.com
