Polyvinyl Celebration 3: Warm Soda, White Reaper, The Rentals, Saturday Looks Good To Me

So, yeah, this should do it for the little impromptu Polyvinyl celebration thing we've been doing today. You've probably noticed by now, though, that we left approximately a jillion free and legals over at the Polyvinyl Bandcamp zone, so you take it from there. Or here.

Warm Soda are one of our very favorite current bands, as we've made fairly clear. In fact, their 

Symbolic Dream was also on our list of Favorite LPs of 2015.

It's been a pretty busy Saturday around here, but, yeah, it does look pretty good, to us at least. If you didn't find anything to like, then . . . we'll just keep trying.

Around the Blogosphere: The Shins, Blindside, Jane From Occupied Europe, Swervedriver, Stereolab, Black Tambourine, The Rentals, et. al.

Certain exigencies will force me to be even more laconic in the coming days. Expect grunts and head feints. (Btw, I saw I had a visitor this week from Lakonia and got quite excited, though I bit my tongue).
The Shins - Breathe & Mild Child & Strange Powers & Nothing at All - *Sixeyes - The supersighted one has even more by The Shins. (That asterisk isn’t a typo. It shows I’m in the know. Now you are, too.)

Matt's whipped up another fabulous SHOEGAZE mélange over at SKATTERBRAIN.
Blindside - Anvil - SKATTERBRAIN
Jane From Occupied Europe - Mourning Glass - SKATTERBRAIN
Swervedriver - Last Train To Satansville - SKATTERBRAIN

Catherine Wheel - Heal - Speed of Dark – indie mom's birthday celebration continues and ends on a high note.

Sunday Morning Chameleon - Go On - Gaper’s Blog – Gaper’s two-for-two with his Friday series, The Unheard Music. (He began last week with Game Theory, in case you missed it.)
