I'm emerging from a long winter's nap.
I'm off to see Sleater-Kinney in Vancouver this weekend. The riot grrl trio have a new album coming out soon. Me, I've never really been into them, but the girl is a fan so...
Then it's back to the West Coast in March for a long weekend with Bloc Party and the Kills. Yow.
Hot Hot Heat returns to E-ville on April 13th, which I wouldn't care so much about but for the fact The Futureheads are opening.
In other hot show news, the (International) Noise Conspiracy roll in with And You Will Know Us By the Trail Of Dead (or whatever they're fuckin' called) in May. The INC previewed a good chunk of their "Armed Love" album last summer at Coachella, but the record has been M.I.A. Maybe this tour means the album is coming.
I'm really liking these kids. Somewhere between Dylan, the Byrds and a touch of the Fab Four.
