times new viking

Hole Class is a side project of Beth of Times New Viking and Rob of Eat Skull. Recorded on a farm in Ohio between '05 and '08, these songs were apparently self-released on cassette at one point, and are now being put out on vinyl via MEDS Records...

Deerhunter, Times New Viking, and Nite Jewel played at Emo's down in Austin last night, and our exceedingly awesome new photographer Pooneh Ghana was in the building. She captured these great images of Bradford Cox and crew, including one of Whitney of Deerhunter doubling as TNV's human keyboard stand...

Deerhunter and Times New Viking are in Dallas tomorrow night, but the highlight of the lineup for me is L.A.'s Nite Jewel. I've written about her otherworldly, lo-fi avant-synth-pop before, but it's worth noting that her new Italians Do It Better 12" is out now, and her outstanding Good Evening LP is available on vinyl from Gloriette...
