Ume's Second LP, "Monuments" Out March 4, 2014

1/14/2014

Picture
Ume's new LP, Monuments, comes out March 4, 2014, on Dangerbird Records. This is he bands full length debut, Phantoms (2011). You can pre-order the LP via iTunes.

No tour dates yet (but the band tour like crazy so you have to think there will be an extensive tour). Ume is a band hard to pin down to a genre--it can be heavy, it can be sort of mellow. It grabs a little modern psyche-rock and throws in some old-school shoegaze and a whole slew of other bits and pieces. What matters, of course, is the whole and if the new LP is anywhere near Phantoms? It will be a must-buy release.

Kevin Seconds is set to head out on a winter tour. The folksinger's latest LP, Off Stockton, is out February 18 on Rise Records. If you are like me you might have read "Kevin Seconds" as "Seven Seconds" (more accurately "7 Seconds"). You wouldn't have been wrong. This folksinger is the front man for the punk rock band.

This isn't a new thing either. Seconds has been performing his more folksy tunes for over 20 years.

Perfect Pussy Touring North America, Releasing Debut LP In Spring 2014

Perfect Pussy, out of Syracuse, are heading out on tour. The punk rockers are touring, hitting some festivals after garnering praise from all the various places you can actually still get praise for punk rock.

Their debut EP, I have lost all desire for feeling, was released on cassette only last year. They are now signed to Captured Tracks. Their debut LP will be released, on 8-track only in the spring. JUST Kidding. It won't be on 8-Track...it will be on 1/4 inch reel to reel (for some reason I feel I have to add that this, too, is kidding).
