Some good stuff:

Earlimart are streaming two songs from their forthcoming streaming two new songs at their 2 new songs. (Thanks to The Battering Room for the heads up.)

Also via The Battering Room is news that The Rosebuds are playing a free acoustic show tonight in New York. The band's third album, Night of the Furies, comes out on April 10th 2007 via Merge Records.

NME has video of Bloc Party's entire concert at Carling Academy in Bristol from last week. The show runs an hour and 14 minutes. Not bad. Those Brits sure do jump around a lot at shows.

Kraig Jarrett Johnson, known as a member of Golden Smog, The Jayhawks and Run Westy Run, has several solo songs up at his MySpace page. Not sure why I'm just discovering this now. Pretty good.

Silversun Pickups recently did an in-studio set for, err, MTV. I still love 'em. Watch it here. They also did an acoustic set for Liquid Generation, which you can watch here.

More soon...
