Hello Inbox!

A surprising amount of interesting and important stuff came in via e-mail while I was in Colorado this weekend:

The newest Strokes song leaked, 'Razor Blade' is my favorite new one (Thx Jason).  I like almost everything I've heard so far (Especially the Walkmen-esque '15 minutes of pain'), but this one I guess is the most traditional?  Good song.  People seem to be a bit scared to post these leaks anymore, but Golden Fiddle shows no fear.

Death Cab is going to be webcasting their show from DC tonight at around 9:45 on NPR's 'All Songs Considered'.  You can listen in here.

Gothamist is now running op-ed columns on Sunday.  Most notably, the columns will be written in the first person, singular!  My General Admission concert reviews will still be posted during the week, but I may use this platform to exhibit my limited vocabulary on some topics beyond music.  We will see.

If you're a music fan (even a casual one) and haven't signed up for Coolfer's new music mailing list, you owe it to yourself to do so.  One e-mail every week listing what's new, with a bit of intelligent commentary.  Think of it as the Oh My Rockness of releases.

Finally, Morning Theft, a band I haven't written about in ages, is following one of my favorite Halloween traditions by covering Weezer's Blue Album all the way through on Friday, 10/28 at Fat Baby. Great chance to check out the new venue on Rivington and Essex.  Feel free to still yell out Pinkerton requests to no avail.
