Big Light: Monster
March 7, 2010
From their just-released album Animals In Bloom on Reapandsow Inc
![]() |
Big Light is a rock band from San Francisco. Formed in 2007 as a vehicle for singer/guitarist Fred Torphy to get his songs into the world, the band achieved instant recognition and legitimacy with the early addition of bass player Steve Adams. A fixture in the Bay Area music scene and founding member of pop/rock jam stars ALO, here Adams gets to flex his rock & roll muscles.
Part guitar-rock opus, part psychedelic swamp/noise experiment. Big Light’s first full length studio album, Animals in Bloom, was recorded at Coyote Hearing in Oakland, CA, and produced by Big Light and Jeremy Black. |

Seaspin: Reverser
March 5, 2010
The title track from their just-released debut 5 track EP, on Buddyhead Records
![]() |
Formed in Los Angeles in 2007, Seaspin was conceived of 3 years ago, while Seaspin guitarist/vocalist Ronnie Washburn and Seaspin vocalist/guitarist Jennifer Goodridge played together in the CMJ chart topping band Your Enemies’ Friends. Having shared stages with Blonde Redhead, TV on the Radio, Mars Volta, and Spiritualized among others, Washburn and Goodridge yearned to do something new, something lush, dynamic and layered — something Seaspin.

Secret Cities: Pink Graffiti Part 1
March 3, 2010
From Bright Teeth, the debut double A-side digital single from Secret Cities, released on Western Vinyl
![]() |
The band [formally known as White Foliage] began with 4-track cassette tapes flying through the mail back and forth between the Easternmost to the Westernmost borders of North Dakota. MJ Parker and Charlie Gokey were barely 15 when they met at band camp, but a shared love of psychedelia and scads of secret, unheard songs between them drew the pair together. Many years later, after the addition of drummer Alex Abnos Secret Cities has emerged with a cocktail of Spector-esque doe-eyed romanticism, electronic flourishes indebted to minimalist composers like Terry Riley, the noisy, art damaged sensibilities of late psych groups like The United States of America.
Coming soon is a full length release by the band – Pink Graffiti – June 2010 |

Red Pens: Hung Out
March 1, 2010
From the album Reasons on Grainbelt Records
![]() |
Ah, cacophony – the blissfully unhinged sound of garage-y, lo-fi fun, the sonic equivalent of Minneapolis’ PBR-sticky club floors, and Red Pens’ best friend! These Midwesterners mean it, speaking almost exclusively in reverbed squeals, slap/feedback and the language of broken distortion pedals. Of course, while the Replacements are certainly a reference point for these songs, the quirks come quicker and the sonic oddities more often on the band’s debut, Reasons. The album is available February 16th on Grain Belt Records. Howard Hamilton III, string-bender extraordinaire and mastermind behind Red Pens does the birthplace of skuzzy blue collar rock proud on the LP, recorded in his apartment with an invigorating disregard for fidelity. Bolstered by the maniacal skin-pounding of Laura Bennet, the racket drummed up on the duo’s debut needs to be heard to be believed. [The Musebox] |

Lizards From Afar: Block Party
February 26, 2010
Last time LFA were on the Daily Dose I got some of the details wrong, so this time I’ve asked them to write their own introduction:
Being old guys, the Lizards From Afar still think in terms of albums, and they intended Block Party as the conclusion to their 2008 reunion effort “Bloomington Democracy.” Written by LFA lyricist and one-time bass player, Gator (all Lizards From Afar have Lizard stage names), Block Party is one of our favorite compositions as a band.
![]() |
Unsigned and unfettered to the corporate music industry, Lizards From Afar continue to record music on their own at glacial speed, all for a new collection entitled “Copyright Is For Losers” (named from graffito LFA guitarist, the Gecko, found near his Brooklyn apartment in 2009).
Look for new tunes, posted for free mp3 download at: reverbnation.com/lizardsfromafar
