Today's Quick Mention: Be sure to check
out the "Sound Samples"
mix
that Matt Hines of the Eastern Sea made. It's
consists of tracks that inspired the sound of the
band's latest album, Plague, and it's totally
worth your time.
I've loved all of the various indie rock comebacks
that have happened over the last few years, but the
greedy side of me loves to note how there's two acts
in particular that I still must see live.
One is Mclusky (unlikely to ever happen), and the
other is Desaparecidos. The Conor Oberst-lead
band's first new bit of music in a decade is the AA
single MariKKKopa/Backsell, and it's
currently available for pre-order. Enjoy.

- MariKKKopa:
This track does a special trick. As soon as it starts
you want to see whether or not Conor and the guys are still
as loud and politically driven as they were 10 years ago,
and then when it ends you feel dumb for ever even wondering
such a thing. Awesome. Anyhow, who will help me
bring this band to Austin right now?
