Love is in the Metal

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs website has undergone a complete transformation and this new, cleaner look to the site comes with the welcome announcement that the band is hard at work on a new album. With rumors of the band’s breakup afoot and the dearth of live tracks that haven’t been committed to studio, the outlook for a new LP looked bleak until now. Here’s hoping the album is as rocking as the last two for my favorite working band (and here’s a live version of the b-side “Sealings” for your enjoyment).

Personal heroes and the greatest snot-nosed high schoolers to ever revive punk rock, Be Your Own PET has just put four new songs from their upcoming sophomore LP Get Awkward on their band Myspace. Definitely check them out (as well as this video for their single “Bicycle Bicycle”).

Local awesome music venue Mohawk has been named the #1 Bar in America by Esquire. Just goes to show what combining a friendly bar staff (looking at you Emo’s) and an excellent stage for music will do for a new club. I’m particularly looking forward to the Feb. 16th show with Liars and No Age. Check it out!

CC faves Ringo Deathstarr have finally posted their music video for “Some Kind of Sad”. Check out that hot balloon action! See everyone tomorrow!
