Kids be crazy. Would the young man who repeatedly threw himself into the Avalon walls at the Gang of Four show last week please seek medical attention? Although, I must admit, if you're going to ram yourself into non-moving objects you might as well do so to the King. What a show that was. Speaking of legendary punks, how cool was it to see Mike Watt join Calexico at the Wiltern? About as cool as Victoria Williams sitting in with Iron & Wine... However, the coolest kids of the month have to be the Cold War Kids who continue their march up the 'it factor' ladder. The band, whose often compared to Jonathan Fire*Eater/The Walkmen, has an EP that one must buy numerous quantities of. They open for Dressy Bessy on 11/13 at the Echo. New tracks up on MySpace.. Meanwhile, the kids in blackblack are starting to grow up. New songs sound phenomenal. Just ask the ladies in The Like who 'woo'd' the loudest. By the way, the only band I get more requests to post pictures of more than blackblack is Cold War Kids. So here's a 2-for-1 deal... And finally, as of 11/1 the Hotel Cafe is 21+ unless otherwise noted. Kids never win.
Cold War Kids - "Quite Please" (MP3)
Cold War Kids - "The Soloist In The Living Room" (MP3)
Cold War Kids - "Heavy Boots" (MP3)
