Today's Quick Mention:  If you're slick and plan your night just right, you could catch the Strange Boys at the Mohawk, and then head over to a theater for a midnight screening of The Avengers.  Just remember to try and not have too much fun.

While Twin Shadow's last album (2010's Forget) wasn't something that I can say I've been unable to live without, I am interested in their new full length.  I think it's largely just because they seem like the sort of act that's going to keep getting better with every release.  The band will put out Confess on July 10 via 4AD.  Enjoy.

:Twin Shadow - Five Seconds:  I really like this song.  It's probably a bit too 80s for its own good, but you're crazy if you can listen to this and not get caught up in the energy of the quick-paced arrangement.  Also, it's just one of those songs that feels like one big hook, which makes it easy to sing-a-long with.  Confess is going to be a winner if the whole album is this good.
