That day of rapidly spewing ventricles is nearly upon us. Whether you’re in love or in despair, listening to copious tunes is called for — STAT. We’ve reached out to a cadre of bands and asked them to score your V’Day — whether you’re anti- or pro-. First up, we have Total Slacker‘s picks. Check ‘em out below and, if you’re in New York, check the band out on the day itself (February 14th) at The Studio At Webster Hall.
Every December, musicians are beset by a case of anxiety — an anxiety that they subsequently push down into the bottoms of their stomachs with the help of a healthy douse of aloofness. And from whence does that anxiety spring? The ubiquitous glut of “Best of 2011″ lists, of course. Well, this year we decided to turn the tables, allowing musicians to play critic and choose their favorite music and tech innovations of 2011. Antacids sold separately.
It’s WTF Wednesday, kids, which can only mean one thing: It’s time to check out what weird shizz bands are wasting their time with online. This week’s act is Brooklyn’s Total Slacker, who’s been really down with infomercials lately.
