Today's Quick Mention: It's a good ways
off, but I highly recommend purchasing a ticket to
see Mono
play
at Emo's on April 30. Balmorhea, who is local
and very good, will open, and the show is said to be
Mono's only one in Austin for the rest of the year.
You won't want to miss it.
You'd think that
after a night of drinking and totally ruling at
Pluckers trivia I'd come home and want to just flip
on something loud, but you would be wrong. I
prefer CocoRosie. Sometimes. Once you've
gotten tired of giving their new album cover a funny
look then check out the tune below and mark May 11
on your calendar. That's when Grey Oceans
drops. Enjoy.

- Lemonade:
The longer I follow experimental art pop acts like this one
the more I notice that at some point there's always a
gradual shift from strange to a more accessible, yet
whimsical sound. It kind of happened with Deerhoof on
their last LP, and it's continuing to develop with CocoRosie.
So, if they were too weird for you in the past, this may be
the song that changes your mind. At least give it a
listen and see.
