All this talk of MLK is making me thirsty...
SRVVLST - I Would But I'm Baroque (2012)
SRVVLST (yes, as in 'Survivalist') is a post-whatever - or as Last.fm puts it - a post-everything four piece from Ohio.
They twinkle, they noodle, they shout, they get intimate, and they survive.
In my book, that's about all a band needs to do to count as post-everything anyways.
Sinforiano Diaz - The Moosup Seassions (2012)
Sinforiano Diaz is the solo moniker of This World is a Beautiful Place & I am No Longer Afraid to Die's Tom Diaz. It also features Axel Diaz on guitar and John Bowles guitaring and singing some back up vox.
Tom Diaz replaces the electric twinkly feels with acoustic, sometimes uke-driven, but still twinkly feels here on this little four song release entitled, 'The Mossup Sessions' after the session of which he recorded this, in Mossup, Connecticut.
Fans of Crywank, Waxahatchee, Warren Franklin, John Galm, and other solo acoustic singer-songwriter acts will most likely dig this gravely.
PS: It has just come to my attention that Tom Diaz may not be playing in TWIABP anymore... which is lame.
Iron Sword - Demo (2012)
Iron Sword is a super intense and sloppy stoner metal band from Burlington.
They're going to be playing a neck-breakingly good show (from the looks of it) with hometown sweeties, WARANIMAL (if you live in Maine and like metal and haven't seen WARANIMAL play, I feel bad for you son!) along with The Proselyte (MA), Eastern Spell (ME), and Lunglust (MA) on the 25th!
I don't know if I'll be able to swing down to see this mega stacked line-up in Portland on Friday (that's when it's happening of course. Put it on your shredule if you haven't already), but Iron Sword is also playing a show the next night (Saturday) at Orono which looks to be a real rager as well and is much closer to my current location. ;)
Hell, maybe I'll just go to both!
Hopefully dese boys bring there samples with them from this demo - including the Dazed and Confused Matthew Mcconaughey sample at the beginning of "Stairway to Hell"! Check it out:
Here's the poster for the show Friday night for your viewing Lord of the Rings pleasure as well:
