It just dawned on me that the XX are working on their sophomore record as we speak and it's easily the most anticipated release in stereo-land. You can visit their blog and start counting down the days(hello summer 2012), while listening to their inspirations - which include Cocteau Twins and The Streets' classic "Blinded by the Lights."

Meanwhile streaming here is the Flufftronix dub bootleg of "Infinity" that had me digging dubstep for nearly three whole months.

The Frontier Restaurant in Albuquerque, NM.  My first stop on every visit.

I finally caught The Horrors live at Bimbo's 365 Club in SF last week when they co-headlined two shows with The Black Angels. It was a loud, and achingly gorgeous-sounding set in a beautiful venue.

Back in England, where these decidingly throwback shoegazers are from, they're Album of the Year winners(well, NME says) and doing duets of their single "Still Life" with mega fan Florence Welch. It's about as good as you'd hope, which is close to perfection.

Friends to the north RAC remixed LDR's epic "Blue Jeans," which has been remixed more times than the number of jeans you've owned in your lifetime. It's this or the Moonlight Matters remix taking the cake as best.
