I had been listening to a lot of Deerhunter recently before seeing them live last week at the Mezzanine in San Fransisco. Their first major album, Cryptograms, is a lush treasure chest of ambient hypnotic songs that occasionally hint at melodies but more often then not recede back into beautiful noise. Their followup, Microcastle, has more pop feel and clearly defined song structures, even sustained melodies. When we arrived at the venue they were doing sound check and I could tell they were going to test out some new material, which is a strange cross-pollination of their first and second albums.

LA Riots
Text and photos by Robert Castro
Do you remember where you where in 1992? Many of us were clued to our television sets watching the Los Angeles riots unfold right in front of our eyes. On Thursday night the Mile High City of Denver, Colorado witnessed a different form of LA Riots, this time in the form of the DJ super-group hailing from the left coast. The bill originally also featured Kid Cudi, who ultimately cancelled last minute to be on BET’s 106 and Park show to debut his new video Day N’ Nite. :-(

Wendy Darling
By Antics Staff
No, we’re not talking about the little girl who Peter Pan kidnaps. Turns out, Wendy Darling is also the name of a fresh, Californian indie band, too. The foursome is set to take the stage at one of Antics‘ favorite San Diego hotspots, Beauty Bar this Saturday, February 21. We’ll be there as well, with all of our usual magic tricks and matrices. We hope to see you there, at the most beautiful of all venues. Who knows, maybe you’ll end up getting swept off to Neverneverland anyway.
