SHOW ME WHAT YR WORKIN WIT: GO OUT TONITE!

OH SNAP! Two picks for you hump-day satisfaction:

Times New Viking, Little Claw and The Wiggins @ Diverseworks
This show wins the Satin Hooks Honorary Achievement Award for officious promotion. THANKS FOR TODAY’S REMINDER! But in all seriousness, this will be a rad high-point to your week. Times New Viking has moved from Siltbreeze (early Guided by Voices and Sebadoh) to Matador (your record collection in High School), and are alleged to be part of that new Lo-Fi thing. Little Claw’s press kit: “With a debt to Sonic Youth's feminine side, Kylin plays guitar like it's her first time, and she sings as if she's in full amazement of her voice.” And don’t forget local chap/champ The Wiggins, who the best ever description of is “Lou Reed in a garage disposal, Johnny Thunders' vampire alter-ego, leper underwear parties, and successful amateur noir snake charming.” Aces.

500 Megatons of Boogie, Born Liars, Dead Roses @ The Proletariat
We like this all local bill – they know where the rock comes from. Kick back and take your earplugs. We gotta get back to work now.
