Dublin, Ireland, The Button Factory and look who turned up to the show to see his favorite band Tera Melos. Why, it’s the evil King Joffrey Baratheon from Game of Thrones one of my favorite shows going right now! Now this guy whose real name is Jack Gleeson, is an absolutely incredible young actor. He’s so so good that I hate his character with such venom, he’s that convincing. It’s going to be hard now to watch the show the same way and to hate the little Joffrey bastard knowing deep down he sits in his trailer listening to Tera Melos. Anyway, this is our photo of the week. Nick Reinhart & Jack “Joff” Gleeson. cool.
Look at what a little monster he is on the show.
Dan Schwartz can sing higher than you. He’s been schooled by Jerry Douglas, he wears a size 8 shoe, and he spends most of his ‘alone’ time in a van on the road with Keith Goodwin (who can dance better than you) and Tim Arnold (who can hambone better than you). When he’s not spending his down time with two other dudes, he’s playing two guitars at once for Good Old War.
In order for us to have the best conversation ever, Schwartz has begged that we go somewhere with some of Nashville’s best treats — barbeque and bushwhackers. So, over an alcoholic milkshake, Schwartz and I chatted it up on the porch of Edley’s, where befuddled onlookers cast glances at our witty conversation and tried to figure out how the rock star in the Ray-Bans managed to get a date with such a beautiful blonde.
This Philadelphia native knows a good restaurant, and a good town, when he visits one—as he should, considering Good Old War has spent the last months (and years) all over the country with Anthony Green, Dr. Dog, Xavier Rudd, Guster, and pretty much anyone else you can think of. By the time you forget to read this, they’ll be somewhere deep in America with Counting Crows. For now though, he’s sitting with me, claiming to be allergic to the Tennessee air.
Schwartz is the quintessential American songwriter. He’s been writing songs since he was about ten, going through a brief Bon Jovi phase and somehow ending up with quite a knack for writing folk-pop gems. After some of his first songs at a young age, he continued writing songs year after year, joining up with former Days Away members, Tim Arnold and Keith Goodwin, to form a group named after pieces of their last names. Schwartz and I obligatorily talk songwriting first, sweating and laughing through most of the discussion of the group’s writing process.
Another one-name beast from the land of the rising sun, Wata of experimental metal band Boris is not content to shred on a guitar. She’s out to shred your mind. Like many great players, she got her start playing in hardcore bands before getting involved with the genre-annihilating evil that is her current venue.
See Boris live and you’ll understand that only a project as mercurial and frankly insane as it is could ever contain her soul warping leads.
The band name might not sound very aggressive, but Rory Friers’s guitar is as formidable as it is articulate. On songs like “Gang (starting never stopping)” he displays an ability to speak with out words that is especially welcome considering ASIWYFA is an all instrumental band.
Admittedly, we don’t have any idea what he’s talking about, but you have to love the way he says it.
Chelsea Wolfe will be playing a few shows down and back to Chaos in Tejas and the Houston Free Press Summerfest and the show in Arizona will be a FREE show!

“…there were some notable exceptions. Mexico’s Teri “Gender Bender” Suarez, theatrical front woman of the tuneful power punk trio Le Butcherettes, gave the standout performance of the day. It’s not hard to see why audiences at this year’s Coachella and last year’s Lollapalooza festivals took a shine to her.
Backed by the steady drumming of Lia Braswell and strong, rhythmic bass work of the aforementioned Omar Rodriguez Lopez (looking and sounding better than he did when At the Drive-In) played here in April), Suarez spewed out personal cries for justice, respect, equality and dignity, be it from a lover or macho society.
Suarez, who performs in dresses symbolic of gender repression, looked like a young, female version of AC/DC’s Angus Young crossed with prototypical punker Iggy Pop. She stomped, prowled and lurked around the too-small Miller Lite stage during a hot, sweaty, hour-long set in 97-degree heat.
Spitting cathartic venom during “I’m Getting Sick of You,” she turned her back on the rowdy crowd in front of the stage and plunged fearlessly into their awaiting hands.
There is real content and talent behind what easily could be the fashionable rage of an angry young woman. “The Leibniz Language” is a surprisingly complex post-punk song, episodic in nature and one that really showcased Suarez’s powerful vocals as she turned the line “put me back together” from a howl to a plead in a matter of syllables. - Read Full Review by Doug Pullen / El Paso Times
Hoy martes en Madrid y el jueves en Zaragoza. Tera Melos llegan de California para atronar su math-rock, progresivo, instrumental, con leche o como te guste a ti el café. Un directo esperado no, esperadísimo, a cargo de unos fanáticos de los parques de atracciones. Le pedimos a uno de ellos (prefiere mantenerse en el anonimato) la banda sonora ideal y nos entrega la siguiente guía nivel experto: “Me encantan los parques de atracciones. Sobre todo Disneylandia. Pasé la mitad de mi infancia en el sur de California y la otra mitad en el norte de California. He ido un millón de veces. Hace un par de años conseguí un pase anual y fui sin parar. Cuando sacamos nuestro último disco escondí copias por todo el recinto y dejé pistas para que la gente los encontrara. Por algo lo llaman el Reino Mágico ¿no? Para quienes no solemos salir de nuestras propias cabezas, Disneylandia es una vía de escape mágica para huir de la realidad. Suena rimbombante pero es así. Es difícil de explicar. Da igual. Una vez intenté pasar todo el día en el parque con mi iPod pero la música ambiente era tan buena que lo apagué (tengo la banda sonora Sounds of Disneyland entera en el iPod). Si tuviera que elegir una lista de música para acompañar mi aventura surreal sería la siguiente”:

I packed light for this trip. I can wear the same pair of jeans for the whole trip. I try to milk two or three days out of a t-shirt. Socks and underwear require daily changing. So my luggage is basically just socks and underwear. I brought two button-up shirts, and today I rip open the back of one of them trying to do a Ray Cappo jump in a music store parking lot.
Tonight’s club is another one of those converted factory/warehouse spaces. Not sure if it’s a squat, necessarily, but it definitely feels like one. The promoter is a very outgoing, boisterous, jolly German guy named Uncle George. It winds up being my favorite show of tour thus far. Good sound, good crowd, good vibes. Even Deafheaven seems to have gotten over their whole choking-and-punching incident from Paris.
SARGENT HOUSE SXSW SHOWCASE 2012
March 13th-19th were the six nights I traveled solo to the infamous South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, TX this year. Being that I am from Florida and have never been to Texas before I didn’t know what to expect. Initially I was hesitant to take on the adventure because of financials but I found out I had a cousin in Austin I could stay with. With a free place to stay there was nothing holding me back (besides my pet peeve of flying in crowded Southwest Airline airplanes because I am 6’4” tall and there always seems to be a snooty old lady or terrible young children ruining my flight). Anyway, I made it to Austin, TX and what a trip it was.
Being that I am a rather enthusiastic music lover and graduated college with a business management degree I have always had a passion for music management. I especially wanted to go out to SXSW to meet up with managers from the Sargent House record label who I had been in contact with and learned a great deal of information from. Among their powerful roster of bands, Sargent House had a handful of bands showcasing their talents throughout the festival. Friday March 16th they had quite the unforgettable showcase with a handful of their artists coming together in one night playing one after the other. I honestly can’t describe the authenticity of this show. It was just so original there were more people lined up outside than could even fit inside. Being that fan that I am, I of course showed up early enough to get a spot inside.
…This show was also another confirmation of how Maps & Atlases have great taste in the supporting bands they bring on tour with them. Sister Crayon, opened, and then there was El Paso psych funk band Zechs Marquise. The core of this band is a trio of brothers; Marcel Rodriguez-Lopez, Marfred Rodriguez-Lopez, and Rikardo Rodriguez-Lopez, who also happen to have another brother by the name of Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, who you may have heard of in relation to The Mars Volta. Drummer Marcel wasn’t at this show, but the drummer that played with them held it down with percussive stealth, not to mention his beard almost passing for a 6th member of the band.
Regardless of the band’s hairy prowess and higher profile relations, they really brought out some jams, and they brought it hard. They describe their sound as being funk from the future, and if the future of funk is a much heavier, blown out, almost hardcore funk, then that description is pretty accurate. Also, the fact that they’re on Sargent House with the likes of Tera Melos and Chelsea Wolfe makes total sense. Minutes after their set, tweets started popping up in the feed about the band’s impressive set. I think Zechs blew some people’s minds that night.
Zechs Marquise has just announced summer tour dates with And So I Watch You From Afar, so kids across the nation will be able to have their ears blown proper. ” - read the Full show Review by Kelly Knapp
