hey dear reader, so last night we happened upon some house party a little ways north (?) of campus. local band the newspapers was playing there, and I have to say, they were pretty impressive. playing a set of dancy, catchy, pop-punk, their site claims they are a result of the shins + minus the bear, but they sound like they owe a great debt to portland locals the thermals (the best song of their set aped the hook to "here's your future" to good effect). check out their
myspace and listen to them, or listen to "lakeview", a song off their lakeview ep. it's a chill track with a nice use of delayed acoustic guitar and some glockenspiel action going on.
-mp
also: i had a really vivid dream about starting a record label. i was woken up in the process of making the business model (step 3: after recouping production costs, label and bands split profits 50/50). is someone telling me to do something?
