Sandra Burciaga — Founder / Editor-In-Chief 1. Death From Above 1979 — The Physical World (Last Gang Records / Warner Bros Records) It wasn’t an easy feat to get Sebastien Granier and Jesse F. Keeler back together to perform again, let alone cut another album, but I am so glad that they did. This new album […]

Arcade Fire Roasted Turkey — Since 1621, Thanksgiving has been celebrated with a nice juicy turkey as the main course. Over the years, Arcade Fire has become the main course of indie music. And just like turkey, if you have an overload of Arcade Fire, it can sometimes make you sleepy and feeling guilty. Stuffing […]

Coachella? More like NO-chella for me. Here’s why it just might be a little too risky for me to attend the annual shit show. While you’re out in the scorching heat enjoying your $2,000+ vacation (and dressed like some superhero), I’ll be at home in Los Angeles, where it’s nice and calm since half of […]

Since 1992 Marcus Lambkin, also known as the disco-inspired act Sh*t Robot, began DJing in New York City, quickly being recognized by venues after passing out several mixtapes of his work. His single in 2010 “Take ‘Em Up” caused commotion among disco lovers, featuring background music similar to Kavinsky’s “Nightcall”. His creations of infectious dance beats […]

Why yes, that is David Bowie you hear on the new Arcade Fire single, “Reflektor.” Earlier today, we shared Arcade Fire’s official video for “Reflektor” — the first single from their forthcoming album out October 29 via Merge. Many of you may have noticed a very familiar and magical voice, and if you’re top-notch at knowing […]

Spider Fever at Alex’s Bar – Photo: Monique Hernandez We don’t post every show that’s going on every night (in or around L.A.) we just post the goods according to our collective knowledge.

  If 2011 was the year that dubstep went mainstream, then 2012 just might be the year that old school DJs/dance music moguls begin grabbing the brass ring—or in many cases a mic—and just going for it! This may be the year that DJs start singing and becoming superstars. Matthew Dear (DJ, producer and co-label head of dance music […]

It’s amazing to see the evolution of a local band as they go from random gigs to talk show performances. I remember hearing L.A.-based Funeral Party at a local bar in East L.A. (Eastside Luv to be exact) and now the trio are touring the globe. What really attracted me to their music was their […]

As a HUGE fan of Holy Ghost!’s music before their self-titled debut album came out, I immediately devoured the 10-song LP as soon as I got it. This is definitely one of those albums you can play from start to finish, which is VERY rare these days. In a singles-based world, where you’re hot one […]

UPDATE: According the the Gorillaz Twitter: “Despite rumours to the contrary, Gorillaz are alive and well and misbehaving in London W10.” Well there you have it, Gorillaz fans, thankfully it was all a dirty rumor (as we hoped for below). But you never know …. According to People and Consequence of Sound (COS), the Gorillaz […]

Photo: Lindsey Best A few of us at Grimy Goods that are constantly going to shows on the weekly, wanted to list our Top 10 Shows of 2010. There were so many amazing show experiences this year but we had to limit our list to just 10 (otherwise it would be endless … boring).  I’m […]
