If you spend your Sundays reading French surrealist poetry, or if you’re just a fan of beautifully-breathy, sometimes-sanguine pop songs; then, tickets to The Clientele show are probably already being used as a bookmark in your copy of Fantomas (the book, not the band). Touring off their latest album, God Save The Clientele, this UK art-pop foursome will be will be playing a host of new tracks much sunnier than their last three releases....

If we had to describe London's The Clientele in one word, it would be "dreamy." Their gentle, sad, and beautiful songs give life a Sunday morning's full of blurry edges and recollections when they're playing. The band have struck a more upbeat note on new album God Save The Clientele, but it's still a matter of degrees, as the signature sounds of the group remain intact. These songs are still made for headphones, long...

We've just received word that Emo's has decided to cancel tonight's shows because of the unwavering ice storm. After two days of closure, we'd hoped to sled downtown and catch The Politics, She, Sir and Haunting Oboe inside the club proper and double-back to the lounge to attempt a glimpse of A Hawk and a Hacksaw, Weird Weeds and Ralph White, but alas. We're crossing our fingers that things start getting back to normal...

This show has been canceled due to the on-going ice storm. -ed. Emo's Lounge, in its relative infancy, has already come into its own as a indie-rock venue unafraid of breaking the mold to host more diverse acts. We've seen some great shows, drank our share of reasonably priced drinks, and used the rather odd restrooms, thus far being more than satisfied with the place. Tonight will be no different, with a great lineup...

It starts with the clang of a triangle, and then you’re off: The Weird Weeds take listeners on a surreal ride to an undisclosed location in their latest self-titled release. Bandmates Sandy Ewen (guitar/vocals), Nick Hennies (percussion/vocals), and Aaron Russell (guitar) strive to guarantee that no band has so aptly lived up to its own name before The Weird Weeds came into existence. The disc features ample loops, distortion, poly-rhythmic percussion, screeches, howls, and...
