Justice, Basement Jaxx lead HARD Haunted Mansion ’09
Despite last week’s difficulties, the folks behind HARD are determined to keep the sounds of pulsating electricity flowing in downtown Los Angeles. This is no more evident by HARD’s next great event, the HARD Haunted Mansion. Taking place on Halloween night (October 31st) at a yet-to-be-announced, brand new location (so long the Forum!), this year’s [...]

Album Review: Grouper – Cover the Windows and the Walls
Cover the Windows and the Walls may not actually be a new release (this is a CD re-release of a vinyl slab released nearly two years ago, just before Dragging a Dead Dear), but it’s a breath of fresh air, to say the least.
Imaad Wasif is keeping himself busy
Los Angeles-based songwriter Imaad Wasif, who has logged time with The Yeah Yeah Yeahs (that’s him on guitar in It’s Blitz’s dramatic closer, “Little Shadow”) and Lou Barlow’s Folk Implosion, is set to release a follow up to his 2006 self-titled debut on Kill Rock Stars. It’s called The Voidist, is recorded with his band [...]
