Show review: Sunset Rubdown @ The Troubadour. On Tuesday night, Sunset Rubdown concluded their North American tour at the Troubadour in West Hollywood. 'This is the last one for a while', said front man Spencer Krug who added, 'all good things must end'. While nobody hopes that we've seen the last of Sunset Rubdown, at least we have plenty of side projects to keep us entertained :). Major thanks to Sean at Speed, Glue and Music for introducing me to this band a few years back. Well done sir. That said, J...

Show review: Lilys @ Spaceland. It has certainly been a while since Kurt Heasley brought his band out for a live run. But, the pleasant surprise of seeing an ad mid-week that said Lilys were playing that Sunday changed that. Kicking things off with 'Squares' and providing peppy and jangly renditions of tracks including (my favorite song) 'Ginger' and 'Nanny in Manhattan', the band looked happy and Kurt was talkative throughout - though sometimes a bit incoherent. VIDEO: Kurt Heasley - 'Ginger'. We have a...

Show Review: Japandroids @ The Echoplex. Brian King, (photo courtesy of sleepydoll). I think my buddy Kevin described Japandroids best when he said 'time to watch two guys make four guys worth of sound'. After sets by electro, grind-core rockers All Leather and rabbit-accessory clad surf(? Band NoBunny (who's set will forever lurk in the dark corners of my mind), Vancouver garage-rockers Japandroids took the stage to a warm, LA reception. As my buddy Randol said, it is nice to see that not all bands feel...

Show Review: LCD Soundsystem @ The Palladium. Photo courtesy of Ben Wener, OC Register). For as much as LCD Soundsystem is a New York band, they are as much a Hollywood one with their Sunset Blvd. special ability to get hipsters and middle-aged men alike shaking their ass on the dance floor. Bringing the party to the Palladium on Friday night, DFA label mates Holy Ghost! Set the vibe with a handful of retro-dance tracks before the crowd energy swelled and LCD took the stage. Ending the main set with the ...
