Secret Seven Records is prepped to a release a new compilation on the eve March that encompasses the vast range of sound coming out of the San Francisco area. The compilation titled In A Cloud: New Sounds From San Francisco and includes new tracks from Thee Oh Sees, The Fresh & Onlys, Ty Segall, Tim Cohen, Sonny & The Sunsets, The Sandwitches, Hannah & Raven (of Grass Widow) and tons more. Im stoked about hearing anything new from Ty Segall so I present this to you via the wonderful Secret Seven Records; “Hey Big Mouth” is the song and its a roarin’ raucous punk tribute, hard hitting and as snotty as the Dead Boys. You can pre-order the LP here.

John Dwyer’s influence is descending upon Eastern Europe and we now have proof in the form of Fuzzy Pets. This band is precisely the thing that makes me want to visit Russia; that vodka and drunk russians. Fuzzy Pets is not a slick, produced band, and they don’t care. They use simply a guitar and drum machine and dirty American lyrics accented with their Slavic tongues; it often seems that they just throw a slew of American slang words in a blender and say whatever regurgitates first. Information is hard to find on this band so let me be the first to say that the potential is great for this band. They’ve recently self-released their first album titled Marilyn Chambers Cocaine Slut (see what I mean?) and other than that all we have to go on is the music. So enjoy.
Fuzzy Pets – Blow Up Your Head

Still haven’t gotten the whole “podcast” perfected yet. But, no worries, I’ll keep to my word. Can’t say it’s the most eventful weekend (show-wise), unless you’re just dying to make it to that New Kids on the Block bash tonight (seriously, this is not some lame ass joke). Here’s a slight recap of the week and (as always) a few extra I couldn’t let slide.
UPDATE: Remember how I said this weekend was uneventful? Well, I’m completely full of shit. Tonight, for all you readers in the DFW area, the Dallas Observer will be showcasing most of the musicians nominated for this years Dallas Observer Music Awards (DOMAXXI, their 21st year). Six venues in the Lower Greenville area will host 40 bands for the oh-so-low price of 5 bucks. WTD favs Bad Sports, Yeahdef, and Fergus and Geronimo are just a few in what should be an abundance of stellar live music. Here is the lineup/schedule.

Javelin – Vibrationz
Thee Oh Sees – Meat Step Lively
The Yolks – I Do What I Do
Kurt Vile – Overnite Religion
The Big Pink – Velvet
