Bummertown: Cold Cave Cancel Dates in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina
By Chase Kamp on Feb 9 2010
Citing delays due to the relentless snowstorm rampaging in the east, Cold Cave have announced the cancellation of a handful of tourdates, which blows. Cold Cave is primarily the synth-pop project of Wesley Eisold (ex-Some Girls), but playing with him on tour are ex-Xiu Xiu member Caralee McElroy and Prurient/Hospital Records founder Dominic Fernow. Man, this weather is bullshit, but the Matablog sez all of the dates are planned to be rescheduled, which is alright. I GUESS.
Canceled dates:
02.09.10 - Orlando, FL - Backbooth*
02.10.10 - Tampa, FL - Crowbar*
02.11.10 - Atlanta, GA - Criminal Records
02.11.10 - Atlanta, GA - 529*
02.13.10 - Greenboro, NC - Legitimate Business *
* Nite Jewel

Golden Triangle Full-Length Debut Coming via Hardly Art, Tour Proceeds Support Opium Production
By Harold Shueberg on Feb 9 2010
The kids just can’t seem to swallow enough of that throwback punk-driven garage rock these days. Perhaps it’s the spit-in-your-face attitude, the lack of compositional complexities, or the fact that people just want some straight-up bullet in the head rock music. Whatever it is, it’s a fine thing for psych-twinged Brooklyn spooksters Golden Triangle, because they got themselves a debut full-length jumpin’ out March 2 via Seattle institution Hardly Art. The album is titled Double Jointer, and if you’d like to give your ears a little sneak peek, head over to the Chocolate Grinder. As for me, I’m snatching this thing up strictly for the album artwork.
Anywho, here’s the tracklist:
01. Cinco de Mayo
02. Blood and Arrow
03. Neon Noose
04. I Want to Know
05. Jellyroll
06. Death to Fame
07. Rollercoaster
08. Eyes to See
09. The Melting Wall
10. Jinx
11. Arson Wells
In true form, they’ll be cruising around the states in support of said upcoming release, including several shows at SXSW.

03.09.10 - Columbus, OH - Cafe Bourbon Street

King Khan & The Shrines Announce Comeback Tour After Seemingly Endless Year-Long Absence
By E. Nagurney on Feb 8 2010
A year is a long time. Don’t believe me? Well, a year is 365 days. A year is 8,760 hours. A year is 525,600 minutes. And last, but certainly not least, a year is 31,536,000 seconds. That’s a really big number! A really big number of seconds!
Now, of course, you must agree that a year is a long time. With a number that big, how could it not be? Since we have established that a year is a long time, we must also agree that King Khan’s upcoming comeback tour is accurately titled, since it has been about a year since he last went on tour. Might as well go see him on his one-month spring stretch of dates, since you’ll never know how long it will be until he tours again. It could literally be months.
King Khan and The Shrines ‘10 comeback special:
03.27.10 - Atlanta, GA - The Earl
03.29.10 - Carrboro, NC - Cat’s Cradle
03.30.10 - Asheville, NC - Orange Peel
03.31.10 - Chattanooga, TN - JJ’s Bohemia
04.01.10 - Nashville, TN - Exit/In
04.02.10 - Memphis, TN - Hi-Tone Cafe
