Today's Quick Mention: With so many good shows to choose from
this weekend you really can't miss, but just for the sake of recommending
something I think you should go with Viva Voce at the Mohawk tomorrow night
and White Rabbits at Emo's on Sunday. See you out there.
Considering that side/solo/supergroup projects seem to pop up roughly every
five minutes, I'm usually not any more excited about them than I am the
artists who have yet to branch out. With that being said, I am pumped
about Drummer, a new thing lead by Patrick Carney from the Black Keys.
Look for a debut in the fall on Audio Eagle. Enjoy.

- Mature Fantasy:
Diamonds To Shake, the first song that I shared from
the band earlier in the year, had a sort of shimmering pop
quality to it, and I liked it. This, however, doesn't
have that all and is instead a fuzzy indie rock anthem.
Both styles work very well them (and it's hard not to
appreciate the diversity), but I'd be a big fat liar if I
didn't say that I would very much prefer that they deliver
unto me a full album of tracks exactly like this inspired
effort. Expect to be left desperately wanting more.
