So you say you like stoned-tinged shred with a side of old school Sabbath? Well, then I think it’s in your best interest to go check out Danava as they hit the road with Acid Mothers Temple for the next few months.
Danava will supporting their new album UnonoU, which comes out on February 19th via Kemado Records. Dates after the jump.
A lot of people have been buzzing over the crazed keyboard-fueled spazz-punk antics of Team Robespierre lately. Check out their video for “88th Precinct” here and you’ll see why. Also, be sure to check the boys on the road, as they promote their new album Everything’s Perfect. The dates are after the jump.
Murder By Death have posted the track “Fuego” off their forthcoming release Red of Tooth and Claw on their MySpace page. The band has also posted a pre-sale for the gatefold record, which will be on blue vinyl. If that’s not enough the band will also be releasing a three song digital EP on February 12th which will feature alternate versions of songs that will be on the full length due March 4th via Vagrant Records. Make sure to check out their amazing live show when they open for Clutch starting in February.
One of my favorite (and grossly under-appreciated) local hardcore acts, Friendly Fire, will be back for one night only on February 15th in the Bronx at the First Lutheran Church (home of the DIY collective The Bronx Underground).
From 2002 to 2004, Friendly Fire brought straight-up hardcore fun, even releasing Initiative on Blackout! Records. Since then the members have gone on to various other projects, including NY-based metal bands Only Hell Remains and Everything’s Ruined, and NJ’s My Turn To Win.
Click below for the flier, Friendly Fire’s video for the song “The One Who Pulls The Trigger”, and check out the Bronx Underground site for directions.
Guitar player extraodinaire Kaki King is certainly no slouch, whether she is recording her new album (Dreaming of Revenge, out March 11, 2008) or touring and recording with with no-name musicians like Dave Grohl, Eddie Vedder, and Tegan & Sara, it’s clear that Ms. King clearly just can’t sit still. Kaki will be hitting the road to promote her newest release in the coming months, bringing her soothing, looped-out guitar work all across the country. You can listen to a new track “2 O’Clock” below.
Check out more photos of Kaki performing at the SoHo Apple store, as part of the New York Guitar Festival last week.
