Depending on your level of internet nerdery you may or may not of heard that Gobble Gobble have changed their name to BORN GOLD.
The group have literally been touring non stop for the last year+ and have managed to spur the Purity Ring and Kuhrye-oo side projects that you will continue to hear a lot more about. They have emerged from playing clandestine basements to festival main stages.
They are coming back to Vancouver this upcoming long weekend, Sunday Sept 4th at the Electric Owl, 928 Main St. The next day is the last day of summer break, it should be celebrated.
Their debut Lp, aptly titled, “Bodysongs” comes out September 20th. Get the MP3s on September 9th if you pre-order the LP at INSOUND
CHECK DA NEW TUNES.
Born Gold – Alabaster Bodyworlds
local support from:
Blood Diamonds. Internet phenomenon / new to the local scene front page celeb / maker of hot fire.
Blood Diamonds – Grins (with Louise Burns on vocals)
+Teen Daze
Pepper Rabbit – Murder Room (Teen Daze Remix)
Daytrotter record an insane amounts of artists (everyone from Mt Kimbe to Wavves and Vampire Weekend) quickly in their studio as they pass through town. It’s often more of an acoustic one take recording that they do which ends up being a very unique raw take on the artist. Teen Daze was a recent recordee which rules. This track is from that session. Check it all out here.
Teen Daze – Violence (daytrotter)
Event Page. Tickets avail at doors. 8pm. Get there early.
The “talents” start at 9 and we have a 12:15 curfew for live music because the City of Vancouver is laaame and want new businesses like the Electric Owl to not be part of our wonderful local music scene. Gregor do something. eff.

the interview show: raincity doubleshot
Every once and a while it is nice to discover the hidden gems in your own town. This week, I’ve found two, Blood Diamonds and Matty C.
No one seems to know anything about blog sensation Blood Diamonds. So I called him up to get to the bottom of things. There is some weird dude screaming “Mass Effect” in the background. As revenge, I asked Blood Diamonds what he is singing in the shower lately. He wanted to sound all indie cool by claiming he sings Cut Copy‘s latest, but that isn’t what he ended up singing.
Matty C is a local DJ veteran and has just put out a single “Action.” When I called Matty C, he was playing with his baby daughter on the couch. You can hear her cooing in the background as we chat. Sweet shoegaze disco tracks and babies. This show never disappoints!
