Vampire Weekend: Someone Please Tell Me if They’re Good
Vampire Weekend’s release of new music has stirred an odd debate in music subculture. Those who generally agree on most topics are now split. Those who hate all popular music and those loving everything from ten years ago were at the front lines and said their piece.

Daughters is on Tour. I Guess I didn’t need my hearing anyways.
It only takes listening to “Recorded in a Pyramid” to understand the aggressive side of the band Daughters. Their still rock-formatted songs are filled with ear-splitting drums, aggressive guitar attacks for melody and a crazed voice.
The band is touring with their album released last October, titled You Won’t Get What You Want. The album is still as strong as the rest of their discography and is expected to put on a show. They are coming to The Sinclair on Tuesday March 12th. Definitely worth a ticket (and of course some earplugs, as well!).

Xiu Xiu’s Release “Girl With Basket Of Fruit,” Their Craziest Yet
Xiu Xiu, longtime experimental veterans, have created their most disturbing work yet. Having released the hook-heavy, catchy and almost pop-like “Forget” in 2017, the band, lead by frontman Jamie Stewart, has taken a completely different route entirely on “Girl With Basket Of Fruit.”
