			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some things are just perfect. If you&#8217;re a fan of indie music, then the 2010 lineup for the <a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/festival-outlook/sasquatch-music-festival/" target="_blank">Sasquatch! Music Festival</a> probably deserves this classification. After all, basically everyone who&#8217;s anyone from the genre will be appearing at the pristine Gorge Amphitheatre this Memorial Day Weekend (May 29-31).</p>
<p>For one, joining the previously announced Pavement as the 2010 headliners will be My Morning Jacket and Massive Attack, both of which will likely be making their 2010 summer festival debut at Sasquatch. Other heavyweights confirmed to take part include Ween, Vampire Weekend, LCD Soundsystem, Band of Horses, The National, Public Enemy, Kid Cudi, and Passion Pit.</p>
<p>But wait&#8230; there&#8217;s more! Broken Social Scene, She &amp; Him, The New Pornographers, The Hold Steady, Dirty Projectors, Drive-By Truckers, Minus the Bear, The Mountain Goats, Caribou, The xx, OK Go, The Long Winters, Quasi, and Camera Obscura will all also be taking part, as will Deadmau5, Simian Mobile Disco, No Age, The Temper Trap, Miike Snow, Why?, YACHT, and Neon Indian.</p>
<p>Still not done: You can also expect to see Fruit Bats, Midlake, Brother Ali, City &amp; Colour, Portuga. The Man, Mayer Hawthorne, Edward Sharpe &amp; The Magnetic Zeros, Wale, Japandroids, Freelance Whales, Laura Marling, Cymbals Eat Guitars, The Low Anthem, The Very Best, Mumford &amp; Sons, The Tallest Man on Earth, tUnE-YarDs, Fool&#8217;s Gold, DJ Z-Trip, Local Natives, The Middle East, Avi Buffalo, A-Trak, and Yes Giantess, as well as comedians like <em>The Office</em>’s Craig Robinson and <em>The Daily Show</em>’s Rob Riggle. Everyone who&#8217;s anyone? Duh.</p>
<p>Tickets, which you&#8217;ll need to attend, will go on sale this Saturday, February 20th via <a href="http://ticketsus.at/AxYoung?CTY=37&amp;LID=sasquatch&amp;DURL=http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0F00435095F13C04" target="_blank">Ticketmaster.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It took four years, but finally (as <a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/2009/12/03/quasi-creates-american-gong-for-next-album/" target="_blank">previously reported</a>) the newest release by Portland indie-rockers <a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/tag/quasi/" target="_blank">Quasi</a> will surface in a couple weeks on February 23rd. Titled <em><a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/2009/12/03/quasi-creates-american-gong-for-next-album/">American Gong</a></em>,<em> </em>the forthcoming effort will be the band&#8217;s first with new label <a href="http://www.killrockstars.com/" target="_blank">Kill Rock Stars</a> and their first with bassist Joanna Bolme. And as the hype machine revs its engines, things are starting to pop up:</p>
<p>The newly released track &#8220;Repulsion&#8221;, which you can download below, exemplifies the trio&#8217;s ability to reign in, and create harmonies, through musical freedom and disintegration. While the vocals of Sam Coomes continue to be in the band&#8217;s forefront, Janet Weiss&#8217; drumming combined with the abilities of Bolme create a groove superior to many of the current indie-pop trios.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="http://c438342.r42.cf2.rackcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gong.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" /></p>
<p>To help promote the new album, and have a blast with its fans, the outfit will kick-off an extensive US tour in early March.  The tour will definitely make a stop near you, as the trio plans to gallivant through the U.S. playing 27 shows, including six in California, with stops in Kansas City, Denver, Portland, Madison, Toronto, Montreal, New York, Nashville, and Chicago. A complete list of dates and locations is available after the jump, too.</p>

		<content:mobile><![CDATA[It took four years, but finally (as previously reported) the newest release by Portland indie-rockers Quasi will surface in a couple weeks on February 23rd. Titled <em>American Gong</em>,<em> </em>the forthcoming effort will be the band's first with new label Kill Rock Stars and their first with bassist Joanna Bolme. And as the hype machine revs its engines, things are starting to pop up:

The newly released track "Repulsion", which you can download below, exemplifies the trio's ability to reign in, and create harmonies, through musical freedom and disintegration. While the vocals of Sam Coomes continue to be in the band's forefront, Janet Weiss' drumming combined with the abilities of Bolme create a groove superior to many of the current indie-pop trios.

To help promote the new album, and have a blast with its fans, the outfit will kick-off an extensive US tour in early March.  The tour will definitely make a stop near you, as the trio plans to gallivant through the U.S. playing 27 shows, including six in California, with stops in Kansas City, Denver, Portland, Madison, Toronto, Montreal, New York, Nashville, and Chicago. A complete list of dates and locations is available after the jump, too.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New year, new record label. At least that&#8217;s the case for <a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/tag/quasi/" target="_blank">Quasi</a>. This past June, the Portland indie rockers signed with <a href="http://www.killrockstars.com/" target="_blank">Kill Rock Stars</a> and are preparing their label debut for 2010. <em>American Gong</em>, as it will be known, is destined to hit retail outlets on February 23rd and is the band&#8217;s first album since 2006&#8242;s <em>When The Going Gets Dark. </em>It will also be their first record with bassist Joanna Bolme, who joined in 2007. For a group that&#8217;s been around since the early 90s, that&#8217;s a lot of firsts!</p>
<p>The first thing fans will probably notice from <em>American Gong</em> is it&#8217;s somewhat weird cover art. Looking like it was created in Microsoft Paint, the cover is the work of contemporary artists Chris Johanson and Jo Jackson.</p>

<p>Quasi is also switching gears on the road to bring in the new year. On New Year&#8217;s Eve, the band will play Portland&#8217;s Doug Fir Lounge. The catch is that they&#8217;ll be doing a cover set of Who songs, which when combined with the fact that The Shaky Hands and Inside Voices will be opening, makes this an early contender for most epic New Year&#8217;s show of the year.</p>
<p><em><strong>American Gong </strong></em><strong>Tracklist:<br />
</strong>01. Repulsion<br />
02. Little White Horse<br />
03. Everything and Nothing at All<br />
04. Bye Bye Blackbird<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/tag/pavement/">Pavement</a> has begun its duties of guest curators for Weekend #2 of <a href="http://consequenceofsound.net/festival-outlook/all-tomorrows-parties/">All Tomorrow&#8217;s Parities 2010</a>, today unveiling the first five acts that will be joining them between May 14 and 16 at Butlins Resort in Minehead, U.K. And not surprising, it&#8217;s quite an eclectic batch, highlighted by the one band that had perhaps strangest relationship with Pavement during its 10 year existence.</p>
<p>Yes, The Fall has been confirmed to take part in next year&#8217;s festivities. The English post-punk outfit has long been cited as one of Pavement&#8217;s biggest influences, though frontman Mark E. Smith has previously claimed that Malkmus and Co. were a &#8220;rip-off&#8221; of his band. Interesting to say the least.</p>
<p>Also scheduled to take part are the San Francisco spoken-word based band known as Enablers, the Brooklyn underground rock outfit Endless Boogies, German krautrock band Faust, and Portland indie rockers Quasi.</p>
<p>Unfortunately unless you already have tickets (the festival is already soldout), the above should mean little you, other than it does result in some serious jealousy.</p>
