The Girls At Dawn: Call The Doctor LP out soon.

Brooklyn trio The Girls at Dawn make great modern psyche garage stuff, girl band rock 'n jangle. Dum Dum Girls crossed with The Black Lips, with a touch of Best Coast.. you know.

They've had a few great 7" singles out already, but coming soon is their debut album 'Call The Doctor' out on Norton Records in September.

At the moment they're touring the album across the States, dates here.

Go see them if you can.

Night Manager play scuzzy, lo-fi surf punk.

Night Manager are a four piece from Brooklyn wielding bass, drums, guitar and great female vocals, making noisy garage surf punk along the lines of Wavves, Best Coast or The Girls At Dawn.

Its scuzzy and lo-fi and pretty awesome and as a band they look great!

The video below is from a gig of theirs a few weeks ago, the camera work is a bit awful so try and not get seasick!
