The Ritual of Francine Thirteen with Support from Glitters Trails

Photo Credit: Khadijah Grimes Originally appeared on Grimy Goods.  The Satellite was never a venue I could pigeonhole for any particular genre. You may wander in and see a dream rock quintet, or even a mystical performance art piece, and possibly both on the same night, as it was this past Tuesday. Glitter Trails opened up for Francine Thirteen, covering both ends of the spectrum … Continue reading The Ritual of Francine Thirteen with Support from Glitters Trails

Dallas Acid’s Spa Hunter LP is an ASMR Wonder

sngalbums: Originally appeared on Grimy Goods.  I apologize in advance to anyone who is just learning about autonomous sensory meridian response from this piece. Once you start looking up examples of it on YouTube, you’ll never escape the black hole. The sensation is inexplicably pleasurable, described on Wikipedia as being “low-grade euphoria,” brought on by soft stimuli, such as whispers or ambient noises. Texas-based Dallas … Continue reading Dallas Acid’s Spa Hunter LP is an ASMR Wonder

The Weather Station Eased the Pain of LA’s World Series Loss at the Bootleg

sngshows: Originally appeared on Grimy Goods.  Walking up to the Bootleg Theater last Wednesday night, the streets were quiet. Acoustic guitar was the main feature of the night, with emphasis placed on what felt like each individual string for both acts; James Elkington needed little else aside from the instrument and his voice, though The Weather Station performed as a four piece band for the … Continue reading The Weather Station Eased the Pain of LA’s World Series Loss at the Bootleg

A New Era of Sego

Originally appeared on Grimy Goods.  As we discussed their upcoming release, it became clear that nothing about the band has intrinsically changed, but that they were able to push themselves further while recording in Canada. Petersen even mentioned that they had recorded a few ballads. “We realized after it was all done, we made a Wings record,” joked Carroll. When asked for more specifics, the … Continue reading A New Era of Sego

Mind Monogram Reflect on Unobservable Forces in “Dark Matter Theory”

Photo Credit: Seth Halko Originally appeared on Grimy Goods.  You don’t need to be an astrophysicist to decipher this new single. Dark matter is a concept hypothesized to contain the majority of mass-energy in the universe, but it is unobservable and, let’s be honest, extremely difficult to understand. It is an appropriate title for the track, which reflects on ethereal ideas, like time and ESP. … Continue reading Mind Monogram Reflect on Unobservable Forces in “Dark Matter Theory”

In New Music Video for “El Paso,” Ziemba Tells the Tale of Two Cities

Originally appeared on. Grimy Goods.  Like most of Ziemba’s body of work, her new video for “El Paso” is dense and significant. The track comes from her 2016 record, Hope Is Never, which she spoke with me extensively about last year. She explained how the city impacted her life as a borderlander, or more specifically as a “child of NAFTA,” which instigated her family’s move … Continue reading In New Music Video for “El Paso,” Ziemba Tells the Tale of Two Cities

Four New Songs From Raener Make a Cohesive Debut EP

Originally appeared on Grimy Goods.  The new EP from local four-piece Raener is a big deal. It came together a few months ago at a serene beach house in Santa Barbara. This was after, according to my calculation, the band–consisting of Daniel Fox, Will van Boldrik, Zach Bilson, and Daniel Vanchieri–had played every single intimate venue in the city, and just before they departed on … Continue reading Four New Songs From Raener Make a Cohesive Debut EP
