Today's Quick Mention: There's some
cool stuff going on this weekend. The Mohawk
is hosting Wakey Wakey tonight and Lightning Bolt
and Indian Jewelry tomorrow. You can also
experience some TXRD with a bout tomorrow between
the Cherry Bombs and Hellcats. Get out.
Do it all.
Is it possible to not at least somewhat love
The Clientele? I mean, there just aren't that
many bands out there that have been as consistently
good as these guys. It's really impressive.
Anyway, they have a new mini-album for you to
consume. It's titled Minotaur and it
can be yours in exchange for cold hard cash on
August 31 via Merge. Enjoy.

Clientele - Jerry:
I suppose you could argue that the band is always good
because their sound never really seems to change much, but
I'm honestly OK with that. They do the dreamy pop
thing as good as anyone ever has and any sort of variation
on that would probably freak me out. Although, this
does feature a quasi-spazz out towards the end that will
probably always catch me off guard. Is it a sign of
things to come? Probably not. But I appreciate
the twist.
