Today's Quick Mention: Since I'm on the verge of packing up and
moving into a new place I won't be venturing out at all this weekend, but if
I had the time I would certainly check out the Chaos In Tejas shows that'll
be happening all over town. Here's some more
information.
This has been a weird, oddly paced week for me, which means that I need a
bit of quirk in the form of Nurses (they've been on the site before) to help
bring it to a proper close. The Portland-based act just signed to the
already loaded Dead Oceans roster and will release a new album titled
Apple's Acre on August 4. I think it will be good. Enjoy.

- Caterpillar Playground:
Aaron Chapman and John Bowers recently added a percussionist
named James Mitchell to the lineup, and judging by this song
it would seem that he has given them a different edge.
It's still essentially quirky pop music, but not having to
solely rely on hooks and groovy bass lines allows them to
shift gears and keep things interesting. I can't wait
to hear the whole disc if it's as intricately crafted as
this.
