Week in Review (2/28/10)

Charles Thaxton — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 17:00:41 +0000

Thom Yorke’s new band is now called Atoms for Peace. He announced a tour and played some new songs.

“World Sick”, a new Broken Social Scene song, hit the internets.

Vampire Weekend made a pretty good video.

People are liking Joanna Newsom.

Ditto Hot Chip.

Of course, Toro Y Moi, Washed Out and Small Black are this upcoming Friday.

Pretty sure Snoop Dogg was here.

And, Trivia Night happened.

Until next time.
