G. Green

G. Green are a Sacramento band with a ton of buzz right now. Reviews of their live shows have been overwhelmingly positive, often making note of their unusual but assured vocals and energetic drumming. The songs themselves are a tight blend of garage, surf, and spazzy punk, calling to mind a somewhat higher-fi Tyvek. They've got some big shows coming up soon, opening for Wavves, Ganglians, and Procedure Club. Try to check them out live, and definitely pick this 7'' released on Malt Duck Records.

The Intelligence

Hot dang! This one's fresh out of the oven and looks so goddamn good we're not even going to wait for it to cool before we take it all the way to chow-down town (I think I'm hungry). Just the other day we were wondering what was up with The Intelligence, and low and behold a brand spanking new LP just came out on In The Red Records. On the first couple listens it seems Lars took some of that sweet, sweet Nirvana-label money and sunk it into making The Intelligence a real, legit band. This is their first outing w/ the full lineup, and is sure to be bumping out of soon-to-be-stolen car stereos nationwide in 5..4..3..2..
