Portland's Wampire's new album Bazaar is coming out October 7, on Polyvinyl Records, but I believe you can stream it now via Noisey. You can probably bet money that the duo will be playing tracks from the new album when they stop in at 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis this Otober 4th.
Bands listed to appear are Montreal's Tops, described as "equal parts girls and guys, delivering a raw punk take on AM studio pop", and also local artist Suzie, aka Mark Ritsema, with his new album Born Single.
