Of The Vine are headlining The Drunken Unicorn on Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Of The Vine are headlining The Drunken Unicorn on Wednesday, December 14th, 2011.



"Every time I think I have a good handle on who’s who and what’s what in the Atlanta music scene, some band comes along and reminds me that I’m probably only listening to and touching on a fraction of what’s really going on. This week’s epic punch to the membrane comes courtesy of post-rockers, Of the Vine, who last Friday held a record release show at the Drunken Unicorn in celebration of their new self-titled EP.

I wish I had some sort of back story to provide you with but all I know is the band has been around is some form or another since early 2005. In 2006, they released their debut EP, the three-song We Took Our Trembling Hands From Our Ears and Their Cries Were Heard (told you they were post-rock). Somehow they managed to fly under my radar for all of six years, which makes me feel awfully lazy for some reason.

But now that I’ve heard them, I’m going to sing their praises. If you are into the epic swells and dynamic textures of post-rock, of music that aspires to climb and cling to the heavens, you would do well to check these guys out. The most obvious comparison would be to Explosions in the Sky and you can’t deny that the trio shares EITS’s penchant for crafting cinematic songs whose ebbs and flows carry the listener on an emotional journey. It may not be storytelling in the traditional sense with words and concrete actions, but within their elaborate song structures there are definite narrative arcs that lead you along and help invoke a certain symphonic sense of place and movement.

Of the Vine’s music is by turns dramatic, elegant and fragile. But when the moment suits them, they can also turn positively thunderous traversing into more metallic territory with muscular grooves and crushing guitars. Simply put, this band destroys. It’s some of the most beautiful and engaging stuff—local or otherwise—I’ve heard all year." Latest Disgrace

Good Weather For Airstrikes are going to be the second performer of the evening.



Good Weather for Airstrikes is a four-piece indie-rock band from Howell, MI. Since the band's inception, a wide and diverse amount of influences and experiences have enabled the group to refine a unique sound that combines the brooding ambience of post-rock with dynamic, guitar driven passages and impassioned lyrics reminiscint of modern indie and emo music.

Good Weather for Airstrikes was formed in the summer of 2008 by James Radick and Bill Grant, with Joe Hillier and Josh Fenn joining by the end of the year. The four released an EP, "Yearning," as well as several digital releases before putting out their debut full-length "To Have Our Hearts Emptied, To Be Left as We Came" in October 2011.

Mr Gnome is performing at The 529 on Tuesday, December 13th, 2011



"After delivering several albums with flashes of brilliance but a lack of consistency, mr. Gnome have taken their biggest stride with Madness in Miniature, their third full-length album. Their previous two carried a common plague, where style reigned over substance as memorable hooks failed to form with over-active arrangements or superfluous stylistic pursuits. When mr. Gnome were at their best, it usually involved post-rock explosives with vocalist Nicole Barille stretching her exceptional vocal range to the limits. Both her guitar work and drummer/pianist Sam Meister’s technical skill were always apparent, but sometimes the songs struggled in letting loose and allowing melodies to reign over virtuosity.

Madness in Miniature is a different story. Standout “House of Circles” manages to inject freak-folk into a frenzied alt-rock arsenal. Barille’s voice ascends from a moaning whimper into a confident snarl, both accompanied by a backing vocal harmony producing a ghostly yet ethereal effect; the banshee-like ‘ooh’ing is a perfect fit. A clashing between the folk-leaning verses and explosions of alt-rock guitars comes to full fruition slightly past the three-minute mark. Introduced by an epic percussive build-up that marches along in a bluesy White Stripes fashion – and complemented by a quivering Barille, who puts in one of her best vocal performances yet – the conclusion to “House of Circles” is a rampant stunner that embodies mr. Gnome’s energy and structurally innovative tendencies." - Mike Mineo / Obscure Sound

Quit hatin. These dudes are fun. Raucous party tunes. Sometimes feete shufflink , sometimes a touch of metaltastic. These guys like hard work and ball sweat. If you haven't started moving yet, then you are really really running out of excuses at this point. Save your excuses for when you need them, like the next day when you were supposed to meet this cute girl for coffee at eleven AM, which you make but then have to explain your godawful smell because you met her at bible study and want her to think you are something that you are not.
They have an album. That they recorded. Do that.

Manray are performing second and celebrating the release of their new album "Tournament".



"For the uninitiated, Manray’s sound pulls from math rock, metal, punk, hardcore and even a smidgen of non-boring prog rock." Gordon Lamb / Flagpole

"Manray is one of the newest arrivals on the Athens math rock scene. The members of the band—who hail from Athens (or “Mathens,” as they jokingly refer to it)—perform progressive rock music characterized by abstruse time-changes and atonal chord voicings.
Touchstones for the band include King Crimson, Tortoise, The Mars Volta and local powerhouse Cinemechanica." -John Seay / Flagpole

Book Club are headlining the 529 on Saturday, December 3rd

Book Club are performing at The 529 on Saturday, December 3rd, 2011.



Atlanta’s Book Club, a modern folk quintet founded by Robbie Horlick (of indie rockers Cassavetes), navigates today’s indie-folk sea with a rare honesty and classicism. The band honors the folk tradition, yet is unbound by it; every song is a fresh take on an old history. Anchored by the rich and sweetly-sung co-ed harmonies of Horlick and Leigh Anne Macquarrie, their arrangements range from that of a lone nylon guitar to songs thoughtfully embellished by cello, double bass, pedal steel, melodica, glockenspiel, saxophone, percussion, and more. Paying simultaneous homage to their traditional, and their modern, influences, Book Club draws easy comparisons to She & Him, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, and The Dutchess and Duke one minute, and Patsy Cline, The Carter Family, and Fleetwood Mac the next.



Book Club on Facebook

Tracy Shedd is the third performer.



Multi-instrumentalist Tracy Shedd provides just that with her piano debut EP88, as seductive guitar melodies and string arrangements whirl around her silky, plush vocals. The grandeur of Tracy Shedd’s follow-up to Cigarettes & Smoke Machines (Teenbeat, 2008) proves she is only, as she sings in “How Your Eyes Affect Me,” “scratching the surface.”

EP88, Shedd’s first release written on piano, includes a supporting cast of standout Tucson musicians: husband James Tritten on guitar, and friends Becca Hummer on bass guitar, viola, and cello, Michael Hummer (Becca’s husband; PH8) on drums for “How Your Eyes Affect Me,” and Tasha Sabatino (Loveland, Lemon Drop Gang) on drums for “Husbands & Wives.” Stomp And Stammer felt Shedd’s “tales of the desire to fight through a strained relationship” on Cigarettes & Smoke Machines were autobiographical. If this was true, then Shedd has gained much wisdom and is now here for you, as she gloriously proclaims “tell me it all” on “City At Night,” “I’ll listen to all your ideas” on “How Your Eyes Affect Me,” and “If you ever need a friend, I’ll be the one that you can come running to” with “West Inn Love.” Shedd’s truthfulness with her lyrics has never been as forthcoming and prospective.

The Good Graces are performing first.



The Good Graces was formed in early 2007 when I picked up a $90 guitar from Atlanta’s late great Lakewood Antiques Market and started fiddling around with some simple chords and melodies. It wasn’t long before those simple chords and melodies turned into catchy, heartfelt indiepop tunes. Having been through a tumultous divorce just three years prior, I guess failed relationships were on my mind. So I began exploring themes of heartache and hope, while both relecting on the past and looking forward to a happy future. The songs came very easily for me, so much that many of them seemed to write themselves.

It wasn’t long before the opportunity to play shows presented itself; the first was a short solo set at “See Through Souls,” an annual window art showcase put on by my friend Jenn Nelson. I played early in the day to a handful of friends, but one of them was John McNicholas. I had recently started playing with John in the Mary O. Harrison band (a great pop band for whom I played drums), so I knew he was an amazing player. So when he, perhaps jokingly, said that his own set was to serve as his audition for my band, I snatched him up quicker than you could say “twee.” With John on lead guitar, our style began to take shape, resulting in an atmospheric blend of shoegaze and folk.

Sleep Dance originally started with Matt and Nick writing, recording, and playing songs they wrote as a collective. After finishing their first EP, they decided to bring in Ryan and Will to play shows and expand upon what they had written. The later addition of Brad further expanded the sound. Sleep Dance defies any set genre with stylistic qualities of acoustic rock, jazz, and indie rock. Intricate guitar work surrounded by ambient guitar sound, all driven by complex percussion is the best way to describe the sound.

Slowriter is headlining the Drunken Unicorn on Friday, November 25th

Slowriter are headlining the Drunken Unicorn on Friday, November 25th, 2011.



"Slowriter is the music of Bryan Taylor. Bryan spent 2008-2010 touring and recording with The Chariot. He released his first album, “What Keeps Me Sane” in 2009 while still touring with The Chariot. After he left The Chariot in 2010, he went into the studio with Ryan Boesch (Foo Fighters, Eels) to record the latest Slowriter EP. In 2011, Slowriter became a live band adding Nick Taft, John Cable, Matt Karoglou, and Phil Hawkins. With a full band and projection for each show, Slowriter is constantly working on improving the live show. They will be heading out on a southeastern tour in November. Visit the band’s website www.slowriter.net for more information.

1. Where are you from and how long have you been making music?

I was born in Atlanta and have always lived in Georgia. I’ve been making music for about 10 years. Starting with a Blink 182 cover band. I played in a “hardcore/metal” band in high school called The Rein. After high school I joined The Chariot. I toured and recorded with them for 2 years. I left in may of 2010. Now I am Slowriter.

2. Describe your sound in 5 words:

happy, joy, groove, mellow, chill

3. Who would you list as your top 3 musical influences?

in no order:

Empire of the Sun – Everything about this band has been a huge inspiration to me. I drove to New York last year from Atlanta to see them. They have a pretty brilliant live show and their singer has been a big influence on the way i sing.

Kanye West – A genius in some ways…. I just think he makes some of the most entertaining music to listen to.

The Flaming Lips – The overall happiness and good vibes that The Flaming Lips give off is something I really tried to achieve with my newest EP." - Sean Pritchard / The Blue Indian

The Forest Wall will be performing second.



"The Forest Wall are siblings Derek and Amanda Salazar from Washington DC. Their plainly named recording, The EP, contrasts with its absorbing, imaginative contents. Contrast is a pervasive and important element to this recording, as it can be observed throughout the album both within and between tracks.

The first track, Canon, opens with a beautiful flurry of notes cast in the form of electronically reproduced vocals before launching into somber reverie. Does It Make A Sound is complex indie pop full of rich harmonies and increasingly diverse orchestration over its course. Spanish Skies is simply beautiful, relying on strong vocals and guitar accompaniment. Suitcase Son opens sparsely and flourishes with thumping floor toms and bright guitar riffs, and then closes in pleading resolution. Suitcase Son is the strongest track on the album; enhanced by emotive and empathic intentions, it’s truly powerful. The closer, In the Pines, is consistent with the nature of contrasts that exist within this recording. It’s a lo-fi bluesy-folk number that features Amanda’s smoky vocals and is marked by a pervasive hiss reminiscent of recordings made on old cassette recorders. Its raw sound represents a core to the Salazar siblings, who present their talents well on this debut recording." The DaDaDa

The Last Relapse will be performing first.



The Last Relapse is a band hailing from Atlanta, GA. Started in 2006 by Vocalist/Guitarist David Holding, their sound consisted of acoustic guitars, catchy vocal melodies, and a tambourine. Around the time their drummer Justin Canada joined the band in 2007 the music began its evolution into something much more complex, obscure, and different. The band has gone through many lineup changes before getting to the solid one they have today with guitarist Ben Barlament joining in 2009, bassist Michael Emory in 2010, and guitarist Adam Freeman joining in 2011 . They released their first full length CD "Machine" in July of 2010 . You could describe the music as lyric driven Ambient/Rock with heavenly vocal and guitar effects and busy complementary bass lines held together by clever complicated drum beats. Columbia City Paper described their music this way: "Indie Rock with an ethereal, dream pop sound. Maybe if Modest Mouse smoked a bunch of opium it would sound similar?" Other major media outlets including Absolutepunk.net, Atlanta Music Guide, and around a dozen radio stations have played and shared their music. They have played over 100 shows in GA, TN, and SC. Currently they are working on a CD of 17 unreleased songs written from 2006-2008, and a CD of all new material. Both will be released very late 2011/early 2012!

The Grayces will be the second performer of the evening.



"Bands can be a dime a dozen in Music City, and album release parties are more like a nickel. So when an exceptional band puts out a good album, the occasion calls for something extra — like maybe a costume party. That's what The Grayces are throwing tonight at East Nashville's The 5 Spot, kicking off the national tour in support of their new album Social Shock.

The record marks an advance for the band, and not just because it's their first full-length. Guitarist/ vocalist Iz Stone, bassist Patrick Ward and drummer Gaelen Mitchell still deliver plenty of garage-y guitar riffs, fuzzed-up bass, minimalist solos and sing-along choruses. But Stone makes up in swagger what her alto lacks in range, whether using a cabaret singer's world-weary croon in “No Sense In Crying” and “Like The Way” or squeaking like a squeeze toy on “Ricky” and “Eleanor.”" - Jo-Jo Jackson / Nashville Scene

Little Horn is headlining The Drunken Unicorn on Friday, November 18th

Little Horn will be headlining The Drunken Unicorn on Friday, November 18th, 2011



Little Horn began when Atlanta musician Keith Forrester wrote some songs about, as per usual, hard stuff he was going through. Being shy and reclusive about singing it wasn’t until a group picking session in Alabama where he was asked to sing a folk song that everyone else had forgotten the words to that his friend Daniel Bellury noticed his potential. After that fateful day Daniel stepped in to encourage and produce the aforementioned songs into recorded existence. The very minimal gothic-folk style album Such Pretty Houses was born and released very quietly on the then infant New York label Whaleheart Records which Daniel had founded to put out his and his friend’s recordings.

Since Such Pretty Houses the style and sound has evolved and gotten much bigger. With a dark, southeastern, soul-searching lyrical style accompanied by a not-so-typical low end voice, their lack of shame in wailing their instruments, and having been called any number of combinations of indie, folk, gothic, psychedelic, progressive and rock, Little Horn’s approach is fairly simple: they love what they do, they write what they like, and they hope to be doing it for a long time.

Correatown are performing second as a DUO for this show.



Correatown was a name someone called her once. Imagine the lights that slowly haze by when you're driving home late at night bleary eyed, or the night sky heavy with clouds just after a thunderstorm. It's Angela Correa's band daydream fully realized in a dark club filled with the reverberating layers of washy guitars, beautiful harmonies, growling fuzzed out analog synths and that voice. Based in the Eastside of Los Angeles, the band is a mainstay in the tightly knit local music community.

In previous incarnations, Correatown was a more spare amalgam of early folk and lo-fi buzzing indie rock; however, over the past few years the sound has evolved into a lush and textured experience of melodic soundscapes. "When I began writing songs for our latest recordings I kept imagining the sounds and instruments that would shape the direction of our new songs. The most appealing were really freaked out thick and pulsing bass sounds or odd twitchy static noises tucked into shimmering and ethereal melodies. I wasn't sure how it could end up being beautiful but the more the band explored different arrangements and instruments, the more I felt the possibility of having a less organic sound that felt more evocative of the music we wanted to create was our compass."

For this performance Correatown will be Angela Correa and Rob Poynter.

Siamese Twins are starting the party!



"Siamese Twins are a fairly new band to Atlanta, composed of members of some underground heroes… We just got the chance to interview them about their music and other stuff, take a read below to find out more about the thrash/punk all stars we know as Siamese Twins…

Who are the members of Siamese Twins and what do you play?

Joey Hoffman is our vocalist, Ben Ziskind is our guitarist, and Elliot Fullerton is our bassist. Ryan DiDio plays drums, does backup vocals, and does some recording for the band.

What does the name Siamese Twins mean?

We threw around a lot of band names before settling on Siamese Skin, which is what we went by for one or two shows. I have no idea why we thought that was a good name … it’s pretty dumb. We were kind of rushed because we had our first show coming up but didn’t have a name, so I think we just synthesized one out fragments of other names we’d been throwing around. But yeah, eventually we decided to change it to Siamese Twin, the name we’ve played most of our shows under so far. And then recently we pluralized it to make it Siamese Twins. We promise we won’t change it again. As for any significance in the name, I wish I could say there was some, but it’s just to be taken at face value.

What kind of music would you describe Siamese Twins as playing?

I think a lot of bands will tell you that they’re not necessarily aiming for a specific genre when they write their music, which is also the case for us. We know we want to play music that’s generally fast, loud, jarring, cathartic, and at least somewhat relatable to the listener. I’d also say there’s a component of sloppiness in our music — especially during our lives shows – and while I wouldn’t say we’re necessarily proud of playing sloppily, I think the underlying idea is to put expression before perfection.

Although I think the foundation of our music is punk, I’m sure if we tried to say we’re a punk band, punk purists would have aneurysms. That would probably be an inaccurate description anyway. I hate to sound like the “we play music that defies labels and categorization” guy, so I’ll say that there are definitely elements of surf, punk and post-punk, hardcore and post-hardcore, noise, and the occasional tinge of jazz and pop."
