Queen of Jeans take advantage of a beautiful backdrop, where the the ocean meets the sky, in their latest video for the single "Moody". Shot and directed by Bob Sweeney, the four-piece indulge in a lazy day at the shore before taking an odd, fully-clothed dip. You can ask them what this video is all about this evening when they headline Boot & Saddle. (Photo by Rachel Del Sordo)

We’ve been looking forward to this one for a while now. Prolific San Francisco garage-punks Thee Oh Sees (one of our absolute faves) will be returning to Underground Arts next Thursday, November 10!

Please also include your cell number in the body of the message (in case of an emergency). Good luck!

Philly indie rockers RFA just released a new five-song EP, simply titled Something New Fom RFA. The quartet will be heading out on tour tomorrow, which starts at Out of the Blue Art Gallery in Boston, in support of the group’s latest effort. RFA also recently announced that they will be part of this year’s Work Drugs Holiday Spectacle, happening Saturday, December 17 at Boot & Saddle.

Below is a new music video for the single, "Wish We Talked Still," by Hello Shark, a.k.a. Lincoln Halloran. Directed by Free Cake For Every Creature‘s Katie Bennett, the footage was shot on Super 8 film, casting a reflective, daydream haze over the city of Philadelphia and the video’s cast of characters. The sentimental visual and audio coupling makes us long to reconnect with lost loves, though we all know that some things are best buried in the past in the back of our memories. You can find "Wish We Talked Still" on Hello Shark’s latest LP, Delicate, out now via Orindal Records. (Photo by Abi Reimold)

Joy Riding pay homage to a flaxen-haired, Strong Man sideline reporter in the video for “Suzie Lynn,” found on the quartet’s forthcoming album You’re So Smart. A montage of humorous (in hindsight) but intense (in the moment) competition footage filters across the screen as the power-pop ode is littered with 80’s nostalgia, including its futuristic yet simple credit sequence. The video was playfully edited by Jeffery John Massino. Joy Riding are slated to perform at Bourbon & Branch, alongside The Only Ghost in Town & Sad Juror, on November 16, and they were just added to the December 9th bill at Underground Arts with Matt Pond PA.

As the sun starts to fade into the horizon, a delicate guitar pattern still radiates in The Vernes‘ new single “Frozen Lakes”. While darkness appears imminent, those warm, yearning vocals coast along, guided by the steady pull of percussion and stabilized by joyous backing harmony. Hide behind the comforting veil of shade, and soak in those fading rays.

While Halloween on a Monday might not offer the exciting options and visual eye-candy that this past weekend had for you, the true lovers of the best holiday of the year will always find a good time wherever they go. Tonight, don your favorite futuristic garb or what’s left of this year’s costume, and become one with the universe as the legendary Sun Ra Arkestra takes over Johnny Brenda’s for the second consecutive All Hallow’s Eve. Led by the alien alto sax of Marshall Allen, the group will undoubtedly be providing another unique experience for those adventurous souls out this evening at the beloved Fishtown watering hole. It just might the perfect wind down/get up for the beginning of this eventual work/school week. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 9pm, $22 (Sold Out), 21+ – H.M. Kauffman

The Menzingers had copies of their new 7-inch, "Bad Catholics"/"Lookers," in tow down at The Fest this past weekend. You can stream its uber-catchy A-side below. The two songs will also appear on their upcoming full-length album, After The Party, due out February 3, 2017 via Epitaph.

Philly’s own Purling Hiss will be reverberating through Johnny Brenda’s tonight. Heavy, abrasive psychedelia with a tinge of pop this time around will be served straight to your ears by the power trio. Their sixth studio album, High Bias, which was released earlier this month via Drag City, is a watermark for Mike Polizze-led project, as much as it is a logical progression from his earlier works, and it is nothing short of a total sonic trip. Joining the onslaught of noise this evening will be local lo-fi psych outfit Honey Radar and Baltimore’s Hothead. Just stay away from the brown acid, and you’ll have a blast. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N.

Local alt-rockers The Superweaks will be celebrating the release of their sophomore LP, Better Heavens, tonight at Kung Fu Necktie, which will be a bittersweet affair as they also honor fallen bassist and brethren Corey Bernard, who would have been 23 today. The band will be embarking on a tour in support of the new album next month that will take them up through Canada and then back down into the states through parts of the south. The full-length officially comes out November 4 via Lame-O Records. This evening’s celebratory billing at KFN will also include Philly pals Sun Organ, Three Man Cannon, and Thin Lips, whose album Riff Hard was released back in May with Lame-O as well.
