Today's Quick Mention:  I'm busy with the Austin Film Festival and an early Halloween party this weekend, but if I could I'd get out and see White Hinterland tonight, Dinosaur Jr. tomorrow and Art Brut on Sunday.  Feel free to go in my place and report back.

I was hoping to have some sort of dancey gem that would send you into the weekend feeling nice and light on your feet, but that's not really what you're going to get out of Bellflur.  Sort of.  At any rate, the DC-based act will put out the LP Last Quarter Of The 20th Century Blues all on their lonesome come November 17.  Enjoy.

:Bellflur - Grey Sparkle Finnish Pig:  "There is no future/Just this modern world"  Ok, while you could probably get your body moving to this song, I think you'd be better served kicking back and listening to its well crafted and superbly layered arrangement that sounds as though it was lifted right out of some gloriously moody track from the 80s. Here's hoping Bellflur has a few more tunes like this tucked away on their album.
