The Guru - Beach Monster

FESTAPALOOZA IS ONE DAY AWAY!

Make sure you come early to see our opening acts, including The Midnighters, Great Caesar, and The Guru! The Guru hail from Connecticut and are sort of surfy, sort of psychedelic, extremely cool/calm/collected, and you’ll like them if you’re fond of things that are fun.

But if you’re working and can’t make the start of the show, do not fret! There will still be tons of awesome music and food for you to enjoy.

See you soon!

A Record Store Day sneak preview!

Replay Records on Whitney Ave in Hamden will be having a midnight opening for Record Store Day (4/21)!

Replay will be open for one hour, starting at 12am. …What? Does that make this the first place in CT where you can buy these releases? YUP. Their final list will be available tomorrow night @ replayrecordsct.com.

If you absolutely can’t make it to the midnight opening because you break your leg or your car gets stolen, they’ll be open normal hours on Saturday from 10am-5pm.

Happy Record Store Day, friends!

Bomb The Music Industry! - 25!

Too many exclamation marks? I disagree! Personally, I don’t think there could be enough as BTMI is going to perform at WQAQ’s #FESTAPALOOZA this Friday! Also on the bill are TITUS ANDRONICUS, THE FRONT BOTTOMS, THE GURU, GREAT CEASAR, and THE MIDNIGHTERS! It’s free for QU students and $5 bucks for everyone else. There will be free food, a guitar give away, and free FROYO! Doors are at 5:30; we’ll see you there! That’s a lot of exclamation marks.

mewithoutYou - February, 1878

Paste just premiered this new song from post-hardcore group mewithoutYou. It’s a lot harder than songs from their awesome last album, but it’s still rad as hell! Check it out!
