Phenome-Naut Block Party

Block Party, Shmock Party…

.

If Sonic Youth isn’t on your Saturday night agenda, there’s an awesome rockabilly/punk/new wave/ psychobilly-crazy party going down at El Corazon!  The Phenomenauts, Oakland’s favorite rock band from the future are “bringing home” their newest member–former Seattlite, Deck Chief Nick Wayzar on double bass.

.

Be prepared for mind-zapping lazers, fogmachines, flying toiletpaper, and general debauchary.  Space googles (if not full-body suits) are encouraged, but not necessary.

P.S. — SF punk band Supergroup, The Re-volts (former members of The Gimme Gimmes and One Man Army), and Seattle’s own Season of Nightmares support.

Dep't of Eagles (Grizzly Bear) & Cave Singers playing Neumos

Whoa, I don’t know about you, but I’m totally obsessed with The Department of Eagles‘ 2008 release, In Ear Park. Atmospheric, dreamy, blissed-out, and woozy—Daniel Rossen (of Grizzly Bear) and Fred Nicolaus’ music reminds me that sound is the only drug I actually need.
.

Bonus pre-dosage: The Cave Singers, whose down-by-the-river campfire hymnals and twangy backwoods foot-stompers make me want to run away, live out of a van, and hug beautiful strangers with reckless abandon. (Or maybe that’s just my love for their album cover speaking.)
