• Our SxSW Party: M. Ward, Crystal Antlers, Cursive

  M. WardLA Weekly has announced the bill for our Village Voice South by Southwest showcase. M. Ward, Crystal Antlers, Cursive, Gomez and Bear Hands. Crystal Antlers and Cursive are the highlights for me. The new Cursive record, Mama, I'm Swollen -- which I popped in today, and happened to be listening to just before I got the news -- is more of a straight ahead indie rock than I'd come to expect from the Omaha act, who wowed me with their take on post-hardcore with 2003's The Ugly Organ.

Jose Gonzolez rounded a bunch of them up for you in the paper this week, but I also wanted to mention a cool show happening at The Rogue Bar in Scottsdale Monday. Our friend Murph of So Much Silence fame is putting together a cool bill with Angelenos Spirit Animal (el

• Public Enemy plays with The Roots on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon

  P.E. bringin' the noise circa 1988There's a bunch going on this week, and by a bunch I mean SXSW. It is hard to compete with that wonderful festival right now, so I will let our coverage -- handled dutifully by our own ambassador of the funk Martin Cizmar -- of the events take precedence over Up on the Sun for the next few days. That doesn't mean I can't slide in a few things worth mentioning that happened this week, though. What am I talking about? Namely Public Enemy gracing the stage on Late
