Thurston Moore @ Other Music: 05/23/11

This is the scene an iPhone without flash attached to an elongated arm captured as its owner was pressed against the back row of records at Other Music tonight. Thurston and band played through most of Demolished Thoughts...bravo indeed.

Chad VanGaalen: "Peace on the Rise"

It might take me another few views to even grasp a storyline, but this is one of the raddest videos I've seen in a while. It's like some old NES game world flipping on something other than reality.

41 Strings @ Good Units 05/11/11

I went in to this thinking it would be an experimental, abstraction of string based sound but it was hardly that. The performance consisted of around 30 minutes (split up into maybe 5 pieces) of emotive violin/cello/viola sections, upright base, churning electric base and steady drum lines. Nice space, good stuff.

Thurston's great new Nick Drake-esq track gets a slowed down, filtered video comprised of war imagery.
