This week: A show jam-packed with American bands, from SF noise pop (seablite, Lavender Blush) and post-punk (Armin), to Seattle shoegaze (BREEZE) and… Portland post-punk (Collate). Plus new indie from Brooklyn pop (Fat Spirit) to punk from Chicago (CEL RAY) and Detroit (Tyvek). Plus key reissues from Lora Logic and Blue Orchids, a lost shoegaze album from The Veldt, and new NZ indie from The Sundae Painters.
The next part of this post is, as always, chock-a-block with links—have at it…
