The Young Knives Play Spaceland TonightHappy Birthday to the late Arthur Lee of Love. He would have been 62 today. Thank you for the all the amazing music. We miss you.
Tonight's Pick:
Club NME: The Young Knives / Dandi Wind @ Spaceland ($8) – Evidently their immigration problems continued, and they didn’t play their Safari Sam’s show last night. I got an email today that assures me they’re on a plane and they’ll be in town for this show tonight. I haven’t heard their record yet, but it has already gotten four star reviews from Mojo, NME, Q and Uncut. If you’re still kicking yourself for missing the Arctic Monkeys last year, you’ll probably want to show up tonight.
Also recommended:
Qui / Big Business @ All Star Lanes in Eagle Rock ($5) – A couple of the best local noise/metal/punk rock bands. David Yow’s (Jesus Lizard) now a permanent member of Qui. Big Business is celebrating the release of their new album (out yesterday) on Hydra Head records.
Maybe you prefer:
Finnish Moosic Night: KTU / 22-Pistepirkko / Lodger / Disco Ensemble @ Knitting Factory ($15) – These four Finnish bands are doing a little mini-tour before SXSW. KTU is an accordion driven band with two guys from King Crimson. David Fricke of Rolling Stone is a fan. Disco Ensemble’s a post-hardcore band, Lodger is rock ‘n’ roll and 22-Pistepirkko more poppy.
Bright Eyes / Vetiver / Whispertown 2000 @ El Rey (Sold Out)
