Nothing at Baby’s All Right on NYE (more by Amanda Hatfield) Heavy shoegazers Nothing just never seem to stop touring (which is good, because their live show is really something else)…

Ann Arbor, MI four-piece Pity Sex may have ties to the emo scene (they’re about to tour with The World Is A Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid To Die and they’re on Run for Cover Records), but their new album, Feast of Love, which is due out on June 25, is straight up shoegaze/dream pop in the realm of The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, and it may very well win over fans of that scene…
