From last.fm:
The six song EP Orbital Amusement sonically delights with ray-gun and sputnik sounds, layered vocals and fuzzy pitch-bending guitars. While reminiscent of classics (Led Zeppelin I, Flash Gordon-era Queen), more modern sounds like that of The Black Keys, Wolfmother and Smashing Pumpkins abound on this heavy, lustful yet astral collection. With "Of Mind and Matter" (Eclectone Records) Little Man has combined the big hooks of classic Brit-Pop with something uniquely fresh. Read more about Little Man on Last.fm.

Is/is
From United States
First Twin Cities show since since May 11, 2011 • First Turf Club show since February 4, 2011 • 23rd Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar since August 11, 2009
From last.fm:
"If the new Is/Is record "III" sounds somewhat familiar to you when you hear it for the first time this week, it may be because many of the tunes have already been made widely available for early listening. We have been enjoying “Hate Smile,” “Lie Awake,” and “Bomb Me” for much of this spring already. III’s release is still a welcome development though, since not only does it offer an additional grip of tunes, it also coheres them into a singular format – which for me anyway is always the preferred method of listening.

The Rockford Mules
From Minneapolis
First show since since April 9, 2011 • First Turf Club show since February 25, 2011 • 41st show on MN Live's calendar since April 1, 2006
From last.fm:
Sounding much more Southern than they actually are, The Rockford Mules are a whiskey spittin', devil chasin', guitar grindin', band from Minneapolis. Mixing fuzzed up rock n' roll with slowed down blues licks, From Devil's Spit to Angel Tears is a debut album full of that typical gruff and grizzly swagger that all real rock bands used to have. And that's just what this four-piece are – a real rock band, all working jobs and living life outside of the band. Read more about The Rockford Mules on Last.fm.
