Hat tip to Anna Sneed for, once again, capturing an amazing set last weekend at Fitzgerald’s. Hit the jump to see more of the Pains of Being Pure At Heart’s set.

Latest looped out highlife dubs from Columbus, Ohio’s Monster Rally. Since his self-released EP, Ted Feighan has debuted his first full-length Coral on Gold Robot and is now working out his sophomore effort with Bad Panda.

I actually caught JEFF the Brotherhood at one of their last sets on their prolific 230 show stretch, a tour that almost lasted for the entire duration of 2010. It might as well have been their first, they showed no signs of fatigue as they ripped through over an hour of raw, dirty south garage jams. Their latest full length effort, We Are the Champions, shares the same intensity and is perfectly demonstrated in their latest track. “Shredder” starts off (almost literally) like a chainsaw, cutting through the air with a guitar driven ferocity that doesn’t wane until it’s over. In support of their album, JTB kicks off a tour at the end of April in Moscow (yes, Russia) and carries on until May 26th. If their road warrior chops from last year prove anything, they might not stop until next year. We Are The Champions is available on June 21st via, the band’s own, Infinity Cat Records.

Sick new spit from Odd Future‘s Hodgy Beats and Domo Genesis over the legendary GZA‘s “4th Chamber”. Abrupt and to the point, this is the kind of flow that gives more cred to OFers other than Tyler.

Eternal Summers has always had a way with cleverly crafting quick-hitting pop gems. Be it from their debut 10″ or their most recent LP, Silver, their uptempo rhythmics are nothing short on infectious. Our friends at Kanine Records have teamed up with us here at Forest Family to present a short collection of new tracks from our Roanoake sweethearts. The title track from the EP, “Prisoner”, is very likely Eternal Summers at their most lively. The Prisoner EP will hit shelves on April 19th in digital formats along with a 12″ white vinyl run limited to 500. Pre-order available.

My fascination with Grimes has only grown since I saw the Canadian songstress perform a handful of enchanting SXSW sets earlier this month. Her newest track, “Vanessa,” is filled with 4/4 breaks and a much more uplifting beat than anything we heard on last year’s Halfaxa LP. As always, her powerful voice boasts that big things do come in small packages. This time around, Claire Boucher teams with Montreal neighbor D’eon to release the split EP, Darkbloom. Although each side is individually produced and created the album remains cohesive, as if the two shared the same recording space in its making.
Darkbloom EP is out April 12th via Arbutus Records/Hippos in Tanks in digital and vinyl 12″ formats

Since their much loved Mountain Debris LP, A Grave With No Name have been subtly (and slowly) dropping hints at a new full length. Including a Sweat Lodge Guru split with Pink Priest along with their No Pain In Pop 7″; packaged as a double a-side single featuring two brand new tracks. “Streams” is a steady progression, climbing and never slipping an inch. Serious Deserter’s Songs vibes. Limited to a small-batch run of 300 copies. Pre-order.

Last year Tim Presley’s brainchild, White Fence, managed to seize our temporal lobes with his incredibly psychedelic self-titled debut; and again with this year’s Is Growing Faith. Featuring a track from the latter, “Harness”, b/w a serene stroll through strawberry fields in “The Pool”. This 7″ is the inaugural release for new label (and vintage clothing boutique) Afterlife and one hell of a way to kick things off.
