STRFKR
facebook.com/Starf***er
STRFKR is the press friendlier name for Starf***er. I honestly thought it was "striker" when I first saw the acronyms, just like how I thought it was "mister kraft" for MSTRKRFT (it is Masterkraft, FYI).
Anyroad, this Portland is known for "accessible dance hooks", so you can just picture synth and disco beats.
Tomorrow (October 11th), the band will be releasing a split 7" with Seattle's Champagne Champagne - you can hear "Dragon Queens" on soundcloud.com.
In more STRFKR news, Polyvinyl Records will be releasing Jupiter to Europe on November 8th. The EP features a cover of Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun", as well as new cover artwok and three extra songs. The reason for the UK release is because the little fkrs are heading there to tour:
LCTRISC
facebook.com/lctrisc
Swedish duo Oskar Linnaeus and Adam Jonsson are LCTRISC (which is pronounced "elektrisk") has a new single, "Reach The Children (Book of Doom)".
The music video for "Reach The Children (Book of Doom)" can be seen on youtube. The video uses footage from a bicycle safety film from 1963, titled, One Got Fat: Bicycle Safety.
LCTRISC commented on the video: "Picture a rabid chimpanzee banging the drums on a minefield with a baby unicorns head. This song is dedicated to that baby."
POD

POD, which stands for "Payable on Death", is a rather old band from the early 90s. They're pretty massive, and I've just receive words that they've joined Razor & Tie's roster.
A new, yet-to-be titled album will be out Spring of 2012 and will be produced by Howard Benson (who also produced the band's hit album, Satellite as well as hits for 3 Doors Down, Kelly Clarkson, Theory Of A Deadman, Daughtry, All American Rejects, and My Chemical Romance, etc.)
Singer Sonny Sandoval seems happy with the new transition: "We are really excited to be starting a new chapter of our career with Razor & Tie. We just can't wait to put out the new album and show everyone what we've worked so hard on."
In the meantime, they're playing a few dates:
