Deer Tick'll burn your bird, bathe your animal and lyme disease your soul with old time jitterbuggy folk 'n roll. An evolving collective surrounding Rhode Islander John McCauley, it's one of those more the merrier, leaning into the crowd on tiptoes, smiling your face sore kinda parties. Undeniable. The boogie woogie reason we all got into this music mess in the first place.

Ladyhawk play mad but don't they come off so happy? I mean the music is dark. Distinctly. But, like basically everything from Vancouver, it feels so good. In case you've somehow never listened, it's like The National got their brakes cut and they go on driving anyway because they just don't give a goddamn if they end up on your lawn or in somebody's pool. And somehow that recklessness gives the band this vibe like they're your best friends from high school who you don't talk to that much anymore but you're still cool every time because who really needs all that talking anyway.
These new Ladyhawk jams, which are so right on it's kinda brutal, have sort of a goth '80s edge to them. All the chugalug and screaming choruses and flannel shirts with yellowed edges are still there, but there's also a hint of Echo And The Bunnymen. Sounds weird, I know, but listen and tell me it's not there. Anyway. Ladyhawk. Sheeyit. Their new record's called Shots and it's out March 4. Pick it up. Raise a beer.
