The Gotobeds

Pittsburgh’s The Gotobeds are fond of Redd Kross’ debut EP and have covered it in its entirety many times over their course of their career. (They did it at Saint Vitus back in 2015.) They’ve now put it to tape and are releasing their own version of it, out as a 7″ via Chunklet on November 1…

Protomartyr wrapped up a short Northeast/Midwest tour over the weekend where they road-tested about half their upcoming fourth album Relatives in Descent…

The Gotobeds tour dates include Athens Popfest and shows opening for Protomartyr and Oh Sees.

While Pittsburgh smartasses The Gotobeds work on their next album (Blood // Sugar // Secs // Traffic came out almost a year ago on Sub Pop), they’ll release a 12″ via Comedy Minus One later this year that collects a demo, out-of-print singles…

The “new FFF fest” happens November 4-6 at the Sherwood Forest Faire, just East of Austin.

Northside 2016 is in the can. We take a look back.

This week’s Notable Releases include a refined sophomore album from Sumac (members of Isis, Botch, etc), The Gotobeds’ Sub Pop debut, a return from alt-rock vets Garbage, and more. What was your favorite release of the week?

From Brian Wilson to Beech Creeps, from Wolf Parade to Cut Worms, it’s our picks for don’t-miss shows at Northside 2016.

Maybe a little less bratty, the Pittsburgh band are still mad as hell on their first album for Sub Pop.

Maybe the catchiest song on the Pittsburgh band’s Sub Pop debut.
