Holy Crap!  I have quite a few shows lined up this week.  Tonight is Josh Ritter and Eric Bachmann, tomorrow is Stars and Magnet, and this weekend is Fun Fun Fun Fest.  I'm thinking that it's going to be awesome, which is coincidently the very same word that I would use to describe today's artist, Tiger! Tiger!  The Atlanta-based group recently saw they're sophomore effort, The Kind Of Goodnight, released on the local Chicken Ranch Records (where the Clutters also call home).  I'm kind of surprised that more people aren't excited about this band, as the record really is a great listen from beginning to end, so do me a favor and tell your friends if you like what you hear.  This band is more deserving of some extra love.  Enjoy.

:Tiger! Tiger! - Black Daggers:  If only every day I had the chance to provide your ears with a piece of fuzzed out vintage garage rock as good as this.  Buffi Aguero's voice is simply killer, as it floats between the realm of sultry and pure attitude, which makes me wonder if she would prefer a hug or a high five if we were to ever meet in person.  You'll understand what I mean the moment you hear her open the song by swiftly crooning "You come at me all tunnel eyes."  Feel free to melt.

I would have liked to of posted another one of the crafty songs that make up so much of the album, but I was only cleared to share the one above.  However, as usual Youtube came through and provided another glimpse of the new LP with a video for So You Won't Deceive Me.  It's short and chaotic as hell, so don't blink.
