The Jens Lekman show totally snuck up on me. If I realized it was tonight, I probably would have been thinking about it all week and would have posted a reminder before this. I saw him once at SXSW in March (at the Secretly Canadian showcase @ The Mohawk) (pictured above) and it was the usual goodness.

At one point, Tyvek was supposed to play the Silent Barn show tonight too, but that was a mistake. Their friends Psychedelic Horseshit are still playing the show too. I saw a few songs of PS at a VICE party at SXSW and didn't love it. I never saw Tyvek, but I wish I did.

Get tickets for the Atlas Sound show.

Wolf Eyes

Detroit noise anti-heroes, Wolf Eyes have unleashed the latest in a long line of limited ed. tapes, lathe-cut LPs, split LPs, 7"s, and CD-Rs (come on guys, no player-piano scrolls?)...... a new collabo LP with Sickness. Out on Hospital Productions, aka Dominick Fernow's label and store of the same name, I would imagine you can probably pick up copies at their (meaning Wolf Eyes, Sickness, AND Prurient, Fernow's project) show this Saturday, April 5th, at Cake Shop.

Tonight (April 4), Wolf Eyes are scheduled to open for newly reformed dark electronic godfathers Absolute Body Control (their first US show EVER) (and who have TWO records out now on Daft) along with Martial Canterel at a shindig curated by and also starring Carlos Giffoni (of No Fun Productions and No Fun Fest fame).

Tickets are still available.

No Fun Fest details were recently released.
