new Antony and the Johnsons has been announced, Swanlights, available in October. his show with the LA Phil was one of the most hauntingly beautiful things i’ve ever seen. more info after the jump.
awesome, yet again another chance for me to post this amazing song/video from The Antlers. they’re playing tonight at the Bootleg Theater (2220 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles, 90057 (213) 389-3856) on October 29th. these boys are going to be indie rock huge. which really isn’t that big, actually. so i guess they’ll be indie rock medium-sized.
somehow i get the idea that this video is really what Jay Reatard’s day to day is like. all. the. time. his show tonight at the El Rey has been cancelled, probably because he’s hungover from his life.
new sort of Halloween-y video from Modeselektor, who are playing the Forum in Los Angeles at HARD Haunted Mansion on the second day of the festival (October 30th + October 31st – tickets are still available here). not an amazing lineup, but definitely good enough for ecstacy-lovers, with performances from Justice, Deadmau5, 2ManyDJs, A-Trak, Bloody Beetroots, Basement Jaxx, Crookers, Major Lazer, WTTD homeboy Steve Aoki, Classixx, and more.
New Yorkers, don’t feel all left out in the cold (even if you are, hee hee, ’cause we live in Los Angeles where even when it’s raining it’s hella comfortable) because Modeselektor has a headlining show all their own the following weekend at the Music Hall of Williamsburg (November 7th – tickets are available here.)
Awesome, Booze!, Los Angeles, Music, New York, Stuff 2 Do, Videos

Passion Pits – Sleepyhead
Passion Pit sold out a grip of shows here in Los Angeles a while back, so they’re going to grace us with their presence once more with a show tonight at the Henry Fonda. i like them, actually. everyone does. they’re just soooooooo popular. big fcuking whoop, Passion Pit. oooh, so everyone’s your friend? so everyone likes you? well you’ll get yours, Passion Pit. i didn’t want to be your friend, anyway.
ha, i love internet searches. turns out there is a Loverboy song named 'Passion Pit', and i'm guessing that's what they're named after. well played, Passion Pit. well played.
this looks fun and/or mildly scary. San Fran artist Alex Pardee brings his Halloween fun to L.A. a little early this year with an opening at Gallery 1988 Los Angeles (7020 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, 90038 (323) 937-7088). there’s a Halloween contest and everything, so don’t forget to wear your costume. oh, wait, you already are! har dee har har…
Gallery1988: Los Angeles is proud to announce what will undoubtedly be one of the gallery’s most extensive and elaborate exhibits in its history. Bay Area artist Alex Pardee will display a group of new works that he calls his “largest and most intense body of work to date” in “Hiding From The Normals,” which will open with a reception on October 6th, from 7-10 PM. Pardee, who will be in attendance that night, has created a Halloween universe all his own with paintings, prints, t-shirts and an installation that just might scare you. There will even be a Halloween COSTUME CONTEST, where Alex will pick a winner and give out a special treat! On October 6th, we will also be celebrating the highly anticipated DVD/Blu-Ray Release of “Trick R Treat,” a film by Michael Dougherty, which will include a special limited edition “Trick R Treat” t-shirt by Alex Pardee, a screening of the film in our parking lot and the filmmakers signing the movie! We promise this will be one art show you have to see to believe, as Alex has even created his own horror story to tie these new characters together. This show will run until October 29th.
