Playing this week: Tombs

March 25, 2011

Playing this week: Dead Ghosts [UPDATED: No they're not]

Vancouver’s Dead Ghosts play garage rock. Not the sweet, sunshine-y pop that some people call garage rock. Not the soulful, shake-your-ass stuff that some people call garage rock. No, Dead Ghosts play gnarly, red-lined, falling-apart-at-the-seams garage rock. Yeah, you can shake your ass to it, and yeah, you can sing along to it,...

Playing this week: Chris Wollard & the Ship Thieves

Confession: When it comes to post-Hot Water Music bands, I’m fairly partial to the Draft‘s burly, rootsy take on punk rock.
