2 or more cool things...

Panda Bear's new album Tomboy is streaming at NPR and there's a new True Widow video available for your aural/ocular enjoyment.

Also, while were chatting, just an update on the Surfer Blood, ...Trail of Dead & True Widow ticket giveaway... we've already had a lot of interest for this one and the spots are limited so you might want to act fast! Unfortunately, Surfer Blood's Astro Coast is out of print on LP. We have the CD in stock as well as the 'Floating Vibes' 7". You can purchase any of those, as well as the ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead CDs & LPs that we have on hand OR the new True Widow album on CD or LP, which we highly recommend!

TRUE WIDOW

Texas "stonegaze" trio True Widow are set to release their second album As High As The Highest Heavens And From The Center To The Circumference Of The Earth on 3/29 via Kemado. I loved the group's debut from 2008, and based on the below clips and the track "Skull Eyes" - which premiered on Stereogum in January, this could easily become one of my favorites from 2011. Stereogum described them as "reminiscent of a heavier Low or a slightly speedier, Southern take on '90s NYC slowcore stalwarts Codeine" - what's not to love about that? A sound that embodies shoegaze/stoner/postrock/slowcore to become something heavy, dreamy, slow, melodic, druggy, gloomy, and catchy.. SO GOOD.
