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.

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.
