Today's Quick Mention: My friends and
heroes La Snacks are playing at the Mohawk tonight,
and you should consider going so that you can check
out some of their new material and champion their
existence. The
Action Design and Zlam Dunk are opening. Show
starts at 10pm.
I'm definitely excited for the new Menomena album,
but the new track that's floating around on the web
has pretty much put me in a frenzy to figure out a
way to get a precious copy of my own. Hear why
below. Barsuk will release Mines on
July 27, but you can
stream
it now in all of its glory over at NPR. You
should do it. Enjoy.

- TAOS:
As you may remember, the first single had an ominous and
generally odd sound that either left you feeling wowed or
totally unsure of what you heard. This, however, is
nothing like that, and you'll clearly see what I mean when
you click play and experience what kind of comes off as
Menomena meets The Black Keys. Try not to leave it on
repeat for too long.
