It List: Sunday 4/30/06

1. Islands/Why?/Cadence Weapon (Hailey's Denton): Islands has put out one of the best records of 2006 so far, and although I have seen two Unicorns performances, one great and one not so great, I'm really looking forward to this show because I think they've really improved as a band. I'm not sure if I'm really that into Why?, but I'm willing to give it a shot. Cadence Weapon sounds interesting, and has earned some pretty good reviews of his latest mixtape. This will probably be a really fun show.

2. Laptop Deathmatch (Doublewide): You probably know what this is about already, but before you go you can stop by The Cavern and see Teenage Symphony opening for The Pit That Became a Tower and American Werewolf Academy. Um, AWA is blah blah blah I don't care boring and the Tower band is a sort of decent indie pop act, and the fact that they are from Israel and take manger scene pictures in the holy land is kind of funny I guess. So go see Teenage Symphony, possibly stick around for Tower, and then go to Doublewide to see some interesting local electronic performers block rock some beats. That would be our advice.
