Time again for L.A. RECORD’s release party—this time with Piper from Pearl Harbor (as seen on the cover of the new issue) and Cole from Haunted Graffiti (UPDATE: Cole can’t make it but don’t worry, we got plans…) joining us in the back booth with the turntables plus who knows what other special guests? Free as always and starts at 9 PM—21+ since it’s a bar but come out and visit and grab a new issue!

This month we have Jared Swilley from Black Lips conducting his first interview ever—with Seattle’s the Dutchess and the Duke, whose new LP (produced by longtime L.A. RECORD hero Greg Ashley) is out now and very killer, too. We’ve also got the first part of the deepest Kim Fowley interview since Ugly Things, in which the Satan of Silverlake discusses the secrets of love, control, wealth and reality itself. (He has two new compilations with award-deserving liner notes out now on Norton.) Then we’ve got vital locals Zero Film Fest and Echo Curio plus Tom Brosseau checking in from Europe and the Pop Noir twins issuing their first vinyl, as well as interviews with the Flaming Lips, Waajeed, Richard Thompson, Rose Melberg, Jack Oblivian, Neon Indian and Cold Cave, who frankly discuss human skulls and the genitals of hopeful strangers. All this and more! Free all over town or from us tonight! Thanks for your support and hope to see you,
