I saw these guys play at the Shugazi festival in Long Beach a while back, and they were really something else. Nothing is a shoegazey band from Philadelphia and just released their new album, Tired Of Tomorrow, a few months back on Relapse Records. Not only is the album really good, they are even better live. They played on top of a parking garage, and their sound was so big that it cascaded all throughout Long Beach that night. I didn't realize these guys were such a big deal until I saw all the die hard fans screaming for them to play their favorite songs. The crowd they were playing for were, for lack of a better word, a bunch of "Cool Kids," so it was interesting to see the crowd get really loud and excited for them to play. You can purchase the album from Relapse Records here, or you can purchase on bandcamp.

Rob Crow's Gloomy Place
Follow @Uhh_yup
New Rob Crow solo album is finally almost here! The new album titled, You're doomed. Be nice. will be available for purchase on March 4, 2016. He is also going to tour this album starting on February 29, and I will post the dates below. It's the first release since Pinback's Information Retrieved back in 2012, and it is definitely worth the wait. This album is the first solo album that was completed with a full band. Usually, it is just Crow writing all the parts, but this time he got ex Heavy Vegetable member Travis Nelson to help, along with other San Diego musicians. Every Rob Crow related show I have been to have been amazing. The songs are so technical and melodic that I get lost just watching. Please pre-order the album and go see the show when he stops by your town. He also hosts an amazing podcast that you should visit as well.
