SPIN: "Homophobia Haunts Indie Rock"

bonus trivia: "Diplomat's Son" by Vampire Weekend was written about Rostam.

With my best friend
We found ourselves in bed
When I woke up he was gone..."

Girls to play a free in-store in Chicago next Thursday
Girls will visit the Broadway Reckless location on Thursday, September 29th at 2PM to warm up for their sold-out Lincoln Hall show that night. Deep dish pizza is involved, although I'm unsure how...
on a sidenote, the Reckless on Broadway has the biggest selection of records out of the three Chicago locations. The clearance section is fantastic...I found the first AC/DC album there for 25 cents. Make sure you browse through those bins if you go.

stream: Dum Dum Girls- Only in Dreams
Only in Dreams is the followup to their debut, I Will Be. It's cleaner, less angry, and sounds more like LA. Maybe they've been watching Glee? I like the first album better, but by all means, listen away and make your own decision.
