Who Needs SXSW?

This month has been a whirlwind of concert going for us. Combined, we will have attended 20+ shows for the month. Leaving us little reason to care whether or not we were able to partake in the lofty SXSW "industry event" that recently took place in Austin. We're in New York after all.

Behind us: Boy Least Likely To, Stereolab, The Envelopes, The Go! Team, The Rakes (to name a few). But there's more yet to come in the coming days & weeks. I am most looking forward to the Love Is All show at the Knitting Factory on Friday. They've definitely become a bit of an obsession. The perfect balance of post-punk sensibility with a modern twist. Nevertheless, the front woman's uncanny ability to evoke the vocals of 80's pop band Altered Images can not be over looked. Hear for yourself:

Altered Images - Dead Pop Stars
Love Is All - Turn The Radio Off
