wait and see

With the vocal intonation of Jim Reid and the beats similar to those of the early 90s dance music (The Real McCoy anyone?), Diamond Rings delivers another aurally and visually amazing song in the form of “Wait And See”. After watching this Im even more excited he is playing our mega-tubular-bogus-Shake Some Action SXSW Party, we are all in for a great performance, Im 120% sure of it.

Girls of Graviton are a sound manipulating foursome out of Memphis that bring the noise. Their songs sound as if you surrounded yourself with four boom-boxes, three playing various Legendary Pink Dots albums and one playing the JAMC–and thats an understatement when you include the skewed complexity of their sound-craft. This new song “Rainbo” is a recording they just finished for a Speed Tapes comp with an interesting prompt. Speed Tapes asked a slew of artists to watch the 2008 Wachowski Brothers film SPEED RACER and write a song based on their reactions. If you think of it in that way, this song is going to make a hell of a lot more sense. Im actually stoked for this compilation, the idea is fantastic and we get a new TONSTARTSSBANDHT song out of it, I cant wait to hear their contribution as well as the other bands.

After all of those lonely solo shows, the great Ryan (and his silky baritone voice) is finally back in action. This weeks playlist was pruned and handpicked by the man himself, so you know it’s good. Don’t forget to come out to the Granada Theater on the 10th for Jay Reatard, Fergus & Geronimo, and Surfer Blood.
