Just announced (or at least new to me):
 
 June 21 - Black Eyes
 
 June 27 - Jets to Brazil
 
 July 6 - Sorry About Dresden

 They put others up as well, but these are the ones that jumped out at me.

oh, im definitely listening, walkie. i will make my appearance at the black eyes show, and i am hoping to make it to the ravonettes this thursday. i also want to see Sleepytime Gorilla Museum at the backstage on july 9. it's hard to describe them but they're scary-intense and also have a great name.

Is it just me, or are the Raveonettes extremely boring?

Extremely boring is a bit harsh. I think plain boring would be fairer.

Found this about The Statistics as well, they are on some label called jade tree -
 
 Omaha, Nebraska's all-star Statistics is the new band from Desaparecidos founder, main songwriter and guitarist Denver Dalley. Complementing, yet expanding upon Denver's efforts with the Saddle Creek powerhouse he fronted with Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes), Statistics is percolating, hushed electro-pop melded with power-rock dynamics and pure, timeless hooks.

- Black Eyes - DC No-wave, lots of drums, white boy go-go screamo, with Dischord production qualities
 
 - Melt Bananna - Japanese Art-punk, no-wave, Japa-Noise
 
 - The Locust - San Diego sci-fi grind/screamo with an organ & costumes. Trendy bastards with tight pants and belt buckles, youth size t-shirts.
 
 - The Ruins - Japanese brutal prog, originators of no-wave.

The first two come highly recommended by yours truly, while the other two come highly recommended by my arty, chain-smoking, all-black wearing, piercing-ful friend.  So there you go.
 
 P.S.  You can sorta dance to Black Eyes.
