Bonus: Just Announced of the Day

Be Here:
Southpaw, Brooklyn on October 2nd. 7.30pm. Here's the lineup...

The Twilight Sad
Hailing from Kilsyth, Scotland, The Twilight Sad's new album ~ Forget The Night Ahead ~ will be released October 5th, 2009 on FatCat Records.



BrakesBrakesBrakes
Following April’s release of Touchdown, Rock Is Dodelijk (translated from Dutch: Rock Is Dead) will mark the BrakesBrakesBrakes second release of 2009, after April’s Touchdown. Recorded at an August 2008 hometown gig ~ Brighton, UK ~ and this past May in Cologne, Germany, the album is a unique spin for a live concept album. The first half was done on each venue’s in-house multi-track system, and the mixing was done afterward. The second half will be a bit rawer, as it was recorded in the midst of the crowd.

The live album is out October 6th on FatCat Records.





We Were Promised Jetpacks
Assembled in Edinburgh, Scotland as high school friends in 2003, their first ever gig saw them winning their school's battle of the bands competition. The band's debut album ~ These Four Walls ~ was released June 15th, 2009 on FatCat Records.

Colour of the Day.

MotherFucking Living Colour dropped an album last week ~ The Chair in the Doorway ~ in case you didn't notice. It's their fifth since the band's 2000 reunion performance at the now defunct CBGB's. They visited SoundCheck on the 11th to perform and discuss their new album, blasting on the scene in 1988 and the band's fuuuutre.




They kick off their world-tour tonight on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and return to NYC on October 30th to play The Highline Ballroom. Tune in.
