Coathangers

Netherfriends

The Runnies

9:30pm/21+/ FREE

The Empty Bottle

There's gonna be a great show at the Bottle tonight. 4 Atlanta ladies making raucous R n' R in the Black Lips/Demon's Claw vein. The Coathanger's latest release, "Hard Candy" put out by the good folks at Die Slaughtershaus records, kicks-off with a squeal and wail A-side, then gets moody with a thumping cut called "Wife Eyes". It's a reverse attack. 

They're joined by Netherfriends who just released a new LP, "Barry & Sherry" on Chicago's Lateral label, and The Runnies, who fucking kick ass. 

See you there and don't miss Netherfriends at saki with Darling on November 20th!

AllMusic - Revels In Real Rock & Roll

I saw this post on The AllMusic Blog over the weekend and wanted to share. Not only do the good folks at my favorite online music encyclopedia give well-deserved nods to our friends at Captured Tracks, HoZac, Douchemaster, and Goner, but they maka'da big stink about Chicago's very own Trouble In Mind and the brand new Limiñanas record! Rad!

Grass Widow Tonight

There's been some great shows going down at the The Crown Tap in Logan Square/Avondale. You know, the seedy looking place attached to the liquor store on the corner of Milwaukee & Diversey.

Well if you haven't checked it out yet, maybe tonight's the night...

Grass Widow (Make A Mess/Captured Tracks/Kill Rock Stars)

Black Math (Permanent/Plustapes)

suggested donations (so don't be a cheapo, you cheapo)

Next week this hole-in-the-wall, and I mean that affectionately, will host UV Race a killer 7-piece post-punk combo from Melbourne, Australia.
