forgetters - December 12, 2009 - St Stephen's Church

December 12, 2009 @ St Stephen's Church:
forgetters
Police & Thieves
Max Levine Ensemble

forgetters is a new band featuring Blake Schwarzenbach of Jawbreaker / Jets To Brazil fame. I didn't know what to expect from them going into this show and ended up leaving blown away. Great, great stuff. Keep an eye out for their full length, which should be coming out sometime in February. Click here for more info on forgetters.

Check out a few more videos from their set here, here, and here.

ex-Turboslut, Exosus, etc - November 29, 2009 - 3rd St Co-op

November 29, 2009 @ 3rd St Co-op:
Lovey Dovies
Pizza
The Ambulars
Little Gold
That Which Remains Unnamed

Anal Odyssey, Get Gone, Cheap Thrills, who knows. Still unnamed as far as I'm concerned, a cool band featuring former members of Turboslut, Exosus, and more. Sadly, I had to leave this show early, but I managed to catch their set.

Cub Country - November 23, 2009 - Black Cat Backstage

November 23, 2009 @ Black Cat Backstage

This was a show I had been looking forward to for awhile. Cub Country was doing a small east coast tour for their new album, Stretch That Skull Cover and Smile, which I had picked up a few weeks prior at Crooked Beat and thought actually outdid their older material...especially the B side of the record.

Anyway, for those unaware, Cub Country features Jeremy Chatelain, formerly of Jets To Brazil. Check out more here.

Ghastly City Sleep - November 6, 2009 - La Casa

November 6, 2009 @ La Casa in Mt Pleasant:
Tideland
Litany For the Whale
Pygmy Lush
Ghastly City Sleep

I had literally just bought my camera an hour before this show and only had time to briefly charge the battery, hence footage solely consisting of Ghastly. I'm hoping more shows are worked at this venue. Great space in Mt Pleasant.
