Today's Quick Mention:  Fantastic Fest starts back for me tonight.  It's been a good time, but I have to admit I'm kind of ready for it be over since sitting for hours upon hours has turned out to be much more difficult than I originally anticipated.  Look for my recap of the film festival this weekend.

I need to stop talking about Yuck.  I just mentioned the band a few weeks back, and now here they are again.  It's crazy.  And ridiculous.  Sorry.  On the flip side, if you don't mind then I think you'll really like the latest bonus track to leak off the upcoming deluxe edition of their self titled debut.  It's due out October 11 on Fat Possum.  Enjoy.

:Yuck - Soothe Me:  My favorite Yuck is the one that leans hard on the indie rock side of things and gives me something that's worthy of an all-too loud volume.  This isn't that.  However, like the rest of the band's stuff, the songwriting is good and there's just enough of a hook to get the track lodged in your head for a while.  I hope the band comes back to Austin soon so that I can hear some of these "new" tunes live.
