Lost in the Trees' "All Alone in an Empty House" will be reissued by
Anti Records on August 10, so take advantage of this chance to see them
at the Cradle (with two other long-sentences-and-heartbreak bands, Old
Bricks & the Strugglers) before they explode.



Saturday, May 15
Caltrop    (http://www.myspace.com/caltropband)
Arbouretum    (http://www.myspace.com/arbouretum)
Pontiak    (http://www.myspace.com/pontiak)
Nightlight, Chapel Hill

Pontiak are from the wilds of Virginia, and they make a variety of heavy
southern drone/metal that I generally find more compelling live than on
record.

Caltrop are different but equally awesome live & on record, but since
they haven't graced us with a new record in approaching-forever, live is
what we have to work with.

Slim's Downtown, Raleigh

Richard Bacchus is a puckish, evil-minded rock-n-roll raconteur; his
shows are 75% rock-n-roll and 25% between-song cabaret banter. 100%
awesome.



Sunday, May 16
Jew(s) & Catholic(s)    (http://www.myspace.com/jewsandcatholics)
WXDU 88.7 FM, Durham

Jews & Catholics are from Winston-Salem, though they've just released
their first full-length album, "Who Are? We Think We Are!" on Durham's
307 Knox Records. Check out their unique gtr + drum-machine + upright
bass combination at 4:00 p.m. on 88.7 FM or wxdu.org.



Sunday, May 16

Everybody Was in the French Resistance ... Now!
   (http://www.myspace.com/fixingthecharts)
Local 506, Chapel Hill

Hmm. Eddie Argos of Art Brut makes a side-project that releases a
full-length album of nothing but "answer songs", and Pitchfork hates it.
But how does it translate live?

If you go, go early enough to catch Winston-Salem's excellent
industrial-pop/indie-rockers Jews & Catholics.



Tuesday, May 18
