Today's Quick Mention:  Don't forget that Psych Fest 3 starts on Friday at the Mohawk.  The lineup looks pretty good, so if you dig that style of music you should definitely try to go.  My plan is to try and at least make it to see some of bands on Saturday (damn you, busy schedule).

I don't know what they've been up to the last couple of years, but it would appear that The Magic Numbers are ready to stage a comeback into the world of overly warm and endearing indie pop (that's borderline guilty pleasure).  Look out for The Runaway, which is the band's third full length, on June 7 via Heavenly Recordings.  Enjoy.

:The Magic Numbers - The Pulse:  Admittedly, this is one ridiculous track.  Romeo Stordart softy croons as though this might be the last thing he ever gets to sing, the very dominant string section just begs to have a 12-minute long climax of pain and longing, and there's talk about the moon and stars aligning.  It's all crazy.  But fun (for me anyway) to listen to.  My advice is to put it on when no one's around.  That way you can dramatically flail around on the floor as you sing-a-long.
