Here's your weekly news, all stories based on press.weheartmusic.com.
The Wombats announces US EP and US Tour, see press release for more details.
They've only announced five dates, and the New York one is already sold out:
3/11/08 Los Angeles @ Spaceland
3/14/08 SXSW Great Escape Showcase, Maggie Maes Rooftop, 1am ST.
3/14/08 Filter Mag Party, Cedar Street Courtyard, 3pm ST.
3/15/08 Liverpool Sound City Showcase, Latitude, 5pm ST.
3/17/08 New York, NY @ The Annex – SOLD OUT
The EP looks interesting, but if you've already gotten the songs on import, it might be a waste of your money.
Halou announces tour with Bob Mould. We've already covered Mould, so naturally, you guys might want to check out Halou. The tracks I've heard from them, it's quite good.
It Will All Make Sense has a slow buildup, but it really does pick up.
Their music's recently included on two lifey-movies: "This Girl's Life" and "Quality of Life". See press release for full tour dates.
What else is new? More tour dates, this time from El Perro Del Mar.
What's important is that she'll be bringing two Swedish artists for support for these short dates, so I'm looking forward to checking out Lykke Li and Anna Ternheim.
Sad to say, they'll be nowhere near Minneapolis.
For full tour dates, head over to El Perro Del Mar, Lykke Li, & Anna Ternheim To Tour Together This Spring.
W♥M favorites, The Terrordactyls are also going on tour (notably the SXSW show, where every band on Earth will be there.) I think with the recent Juno film, there's been an interest in antifolk.
Also a few quick mentionings, since we haven't covered these bands before: the best band name, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. has a second album called Searching For The Hows And Whys and Wicked Jezabel wins a Wammie.

Not all stories will be picked up, I'm interested in mostly bands we've covered on W♥M.
