Who’s playing this week. We listen to almost every band playing and pick our favorites. Hopefully you agree.
Stripped-down semi-acoustic performances from some of the best bands from Boston and beyond.
Live and in the wild. Hear bands the way they were supposed to be heard. Loud, live, and in person.
All Hallow’s Eve is upon us. Some bands pretending to be other bands, some bands pretending to be themselves. We got ‘em all covered. Featuring Schooner, Deer Tick, The Paul Green School of Rock, Semi-Precious Weapons, The Reverend Horton Heat, Thunderbirds Are Now!, Rescue, Joy, Haverchuck, Panda and Angel, Dan Sartain, The Cassavettes, and The Young Republic. Dressed as sexy sexy bunnies.
Aaron Sinclair and Brett Saiia from Frank Smith brought along a guitar, a banjo, and a bag full of great songs.
The final seal is open. The gates to Hades have come off their hinges. Or it’s almost Halloween. Lots of great shows this week. Featuring The Ark, Hands and Knees, The Fake Accents, Lame Drivers, Shrinking Islands, The Beat Awfuls, Tulsa, Hats and Glasses, The Silver Lining, Swearing at Motorists, Headlights, The Broken West, Canada, The Hold Steady, Dodo Bird, Dylan in the Movies, and Tiny Amps.
The Animal Closet, stars of stage (and soon, screen), had this to say. Note it well.
This week sees the Emergenza Fest and the NEST Fest, as well as our loss of vocal dexterity. Featuring Nation Dozie, Hallelujah the Hills, Age Rings, Christians and Lions, Headband, Eli “Paperboy” Reid & the True Loves, Dirty on Purpose, Figurines, The Mess Hall, Faces on Film, Emergency Music, Victory at Sea, Hats and Glasses, You Can Be A Wesley, Maritime, Bound Stems, and Ben Kweller.

Killer Canary, those little rapscallions, they play the music. It’s good. This is it.
We finally moved to a better, faster, more awesome server. It took 3 days and as many different hosting companies. I hope you like the setup. There will be a nice new design soon.
We just got too damn big for the old hosts. Thanks to you.
