Fresh off that now infamous/hilarious debacle that gained them quite a bit of unwanted national attention, TX’s own VEGA is set to release their debut Well Known Pleasures EP digitally later this month via Vogue College Records. We’re documented fans of Alan Palomo‘s nostalgia inducing retro-futuristic “dreamwave” in whatever form, and he only seems to get better with each release. As our friends at Big Stereo have already asserted, “No Reasons” sounds like a hit, thanks in large part to an irresistibly infectious pop hook that makes this one a contender for summer jam ’09:
Well Known Pleasures comes May 19, with an assist by Miami Horror on production.

Great song. This has to be the Neon Indian guy, no?
Love this Vega, but I have a question:
Didn’t you discover St. Vincent 40 blog years ago, right before the AZNs did?

I ask because it seems as though P4k finally came around. The record is brilliant.
Viva la Vega!

i agree with crystal castles these guys steal guitar pedals!!!!!!!!
Hey there,
You should check out a band called ‘Gigantic Hand’, based in Brooklyn. Good tunes. Worthy of a track or two being played on your Sirius/XMU show.
Thanks,
-Mr. Fan
