I meant to post about The Proles last month. Great name, first off. I heard this song on KEXP and just assumed it was some old band everybody loves that I had missed out on. It had such a classic sound to it. Like it had stood the test of time already. Turns out they're just a small time band out of Sacramento. Everything I've heard has been pretty good tho. Sounds kind of like Spoon.
Their new album is coming soon, but no dates outside of Sac-Town for the time being. Here's the song that got me interested...
The Proles - Good in Black and White (MP3)
Super busy today. Don't forget...Arctic Monkeys (3/25), Art Brut (4/4-5) and Voxtrot (4/10) tickets all go on sale tomorrow for Webster, Bowery and Mercury, respectively. Also noticed I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness is playing Northsix on March 31. Been forever since they've played New York.
yeah, it's been about a year since chosen darkness was around. last time i saw them at rothko and enjoyed the show. hope they have new material.
