“[A the Rock Shop, Marnie Stern] told us she’s started a new blog called the Vagina Monoblog, which, jesus, she really has. She instigated a drinking game, even, where each time she mentioned her or your or anyone else’s lady-part, it was bottoms up for everyone. “No wonder you like her so much,” I heard one woman say to her very much in-the-bag male companion.

But of course there are many reasons to like her so much, not the least of which is the very good self-titled album she released yesterday. It’s a sprawling, noisy affair that’s immediately mesmerizing for its displays of technical proficiency, but it grows more and more likable with each listen, too, as you realize it’s the first time her vocal melodies actually qualify as melodies. It adds an element of playfulness to an album that’s otherwise just relentlessly pummeling.” [L Mag]

Marnie Stern played the sold out Rock Shop (10/5) last night with support from Little Scream and The Forms. The show was a lone date in celebration of Marnie’s now-released self-titled LP, and not part of her larger US tour that kicks off in Philly on 10/25 (after CMJ) and runs until mid November before Marnie hits the road in Europe.

During CMJ, Marnie will play at least two NYC shows. Marnie is also on the bill of the just-mentioned Stereogum/PopGun show happening at Santos on 10/20, and Marnie is playing a TBA BrooklynVegan party too. Stay tuned for more details.

Little Scream has more shows coming up too including one at Bowery Ballroom.
