++For a real good laugh this morning, read Noah Garfinkel's review of Gilmore Girls.  His nicknames in these recaps are hilarious:

It would seem logical that we would call the older Gilmore girl Big Gilbert, but she won't be called Big Gilbert. She will instead be called Pretty Clock Face. She's pretty, and there's something clock-ish going on there. I can't explain it; if you don't see it, you don't see it.

Now, on to some news from the inbox:

 

++Turbo Fruits are back and a little more mellow than I remember? Which is a good thing, on their new song Sweet Thang. They'll release their 3rd album Butter, produced by Spoon's Jim Eno on September 11th. The Turbs play El Rey on 5/5 with Deer Tick.

++May 21st brings a new EP from Shaun Hencher aka Virals, titled Coming Up with The Sun. Download here.

 

++And lastly, New York trio Cookies are giving away Crybaby, a breezy beepy song about California and its canyons. RIYL Calvin Harris or Chromeo.
