keep me in mind

In case you somehow missed this the other day, Rough Trade is now "officially" streaming "Keep Me in Mind," one of the Strokes-iest (and best) songs from Little Joy's awesome self-titled debut LP:

You can also now pre-order the record on vinyl here for 12 bucks. Fab Moretti and crew will kick off a U.S. tour in November, but first they'll play a few shows (starting tonight) on the West Coast with Devendra's Megapuss. Hopefully Dev won't break this thing out (link extremely NSFW).

finally:

El Guincho's Palmitos Park 7" comes out September 29 on Young Turks. This thing is limited to only 500 copies, so get on it before they're gone forever. The b-side is this cover by the Ruby Suns (now in English!) that I posted a couple weeks back:
