Parade, whose members andstyle are a hybrid of Athens and Atlanta,emerges in the young indie rock scene andproves that it has staying power. Theirpleasurable and gripping pop/rock is tight andfocused and more mature than you wouldexpect for its young members. In 2006,the band released its first full length, A RedButton, which indulged everyone’s curiosityand in the end got everyone hooked. Theband’s adoration for each other and funsense of humor is manifested in their liveperformances.

But then again, you realize that youwant to join in on the fun and sing along,so you put down your dukes. Superficially,Tilly and the Wall look like another groupof tragically hip kids with cool clothes andasymmetrical haircuts who try really hardto look apathetic. Looking beyond theiroutward appearances, however, you findthat they are really modern-day flowerpeople. It’s clear from the music theymake that they believe in exploiting theiryouth and milking its advantages for all itsworth. Their most recent release, Bottomsof Barrels, shows they have matured andgrown wiser lyrically and musically, havingmore skill with their instruments and songcomposition. Personally, I’d rather live in theidealistic world of the appropriately titleddebut, Wild Like Children, but I suppose weall have to grow up sometime.—Sally Tunmer28_antigravity: your new orleans music and culture alternative

Not only is the subject matter ofher songs dated-in-a-good-way, but so is hervoice, sounding like it belongs in the samedancehall as Judy Garland. Her 2003 releaseCatalpa is intentionally unedited, much likeBob Dylan’s earlier recordings where a midsongcough or a chuckle went unchecked.Catalpa is primarily a folk record, butSpringtime Can Kill You is strictly a countryalbum. It’s filled with traditional countrythemes: alcoholism, unrequited love, imagesof long and winding back roads and wideopenspaces. The lap steel and Holland’svoice drenched with twang and drawl top itall off. The overall theme of the album, towhich the title alludes, is that although springis a time for new life and love, it’s also just atrap that leads to failure in both.—Sally TunmerThursday, 11/9Thursday, 11/9Who’s Bad, Tipitina’s, 10pm, $10Fast Times ‘80s Dance Night, One Eyed JacksJamie Mclean, d.b.a., 10pm, $5Jon Frielich and Chaz, Circle BarSoul Rebels, Le Bon TempsRebirth Brass Band, Chickie Wah Wah,10:30pmDJ Bombshell Boogie w/ special guests,Dragon’s DenBig O Presents: The Clawfoot & HottubInterview,” Big Top, 7pmGravy, Carrollton StationAmerican Cheese Trio, Checkpoint Charlie’s,10-2amThe Burning Season, Too Pure to Die, Stick toYour Guns, As Blood Runs Black, Aggro-Fate,By His Blood, Darkroom, 7pm, $10Eric Lindell, Chelsea’s, 10:30pmFriday, 11/10Friday, 11/10Ladyhawk, One Eyed Jack’sConverge, Some Girls, Modern Life Is War,Kylesa, High Ground, 7pm, $12Taj Mahal, Marva Wright, BMWs, Tipitina’s,9pm, $25Hot Club of New Orleans, d.b.a., 6pmNew Orleans Klezmer Allstars,d.b.a., 10pm, $5Goodnight Loving with Night Terrors, Circle BarBe Your Own Pet, Republic, 9pm, $12Don’t let the vibrant outfits of the raggedyet powerful garage rock openers throwyou off — Brooklyn bad boys Awesome Colorstretch far beyond the vocabulary of a middleschool-aged art critic. Most often referencedto the Stooges and Black Sabbath, their soundgrinds and howls with ‘70s-esque guitarwails (sometimes played by guitarist DerekStanton’s bare feet) and crassly delivered lyricsatop a near perfect rhythm section, but ofcourse, not without a splash of that awesomecolor everyone keeps talking about. Picked upalready by such press as Rolling Stone and TeenPeople, Be Your Own Pet possesses uncannytalent considering that the mean, median, andmode of their ages are all just 18.

Nomatter the case, the three years it took themto follow up The New Romance has been wellworth it. Elan Vital, their most recent release,is expectantly biting and unapologetic, but alsogoes well beyond their previous work. Theyhave calmed down from being consumed withso much angst and resentment and have sinceturned their energies to polishing their sound.Elan Vital departs from the Sleater Kinneyriot-girlstyle to new prog-rock ventures.There’s no doubt that Paul Hinojos was theangel perched on their shoulders as theywrote their early songs with At The Drive-In being a prominent influence. Also, it seemsthat Mars Volta provides inspiration for thenew material, resulting in a more daring andcultivated sound.-—Sally TunmerThursdWednesday, 11/15Thursday, 11/16Les Georges Leningrad, Duchess Says,Republic, 8pm, $8Fast Times ‘80s Dance Night, One Eyed JacksRed Stick Ramblers, d.b.a., 10pm, $5Soul Rebels, Le Bon TempsRebirth Brass Band, Chickie Wah Wah,10:30pmSoul Rebels, Bamboula 2000, Sir Dilla,Tipitina’s, 10pmDJ Bombshell Boogie w/ special guests,Dragon’s DenGravy, Carrollton StationVern, Checkpoint Charlie’s, 7-10pmAmerican Cheese Trio, Checkpoint Charlie’s,10-2amCity Of Ships, Darkroom, 7pm, $8Leftover Crack, The Sainte Catberines, Deadto Me, In Distress, High Ground, 7pm, $8antigravity: your new orleans music and culture alternative_29
