Super last-minute post on an awesome show tonight.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Surfer Blood and Hooray for Earth are set to play tonight at at 7 at Daniel Street, on 21 Daniel St. in Milford, and I'm super excited. We've been listening to a lot of Surfer Blood lately, and they're just a fun, summer sounds band. And Pains of Being Pure at Heart is awesome with their noise pop.

Here's the info from the Daniel Street website:
Manic Productions Presents:
The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart
Thur, June 3rd
7PM / ALL AGES / $15 ($13 ADV)
Surfer Blood & Hooray For Earth

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart is a noise pop band which formed in 2007 in NYC. They consist of Kip Berman (vocals, guitar), Peggy Wang (vocals, keyboards), Alex Naidus (bass) and Kurt Feldman (drums). If you are into dreamy Õ80s-sounding indie pop then this band is for you! For fans of The Smiths, My Bloody Valentine, Black Tambourine, Jesus and Mary Chain, etc. Slumberland Records

Surfer Blood Meet Surfer Blood: they call West Palm Beach home and, while still in their early 20s, have penned an album worth of catchy, summery indie songs that even the most hook-laden power pop band would rightfully be jealous of. Their sound has been compared to Weezer, Pavement and Built to Spill. Kanine Records

Hooray For Earth Hooray for Earth's Momo EP ends the way Brian Eno's Taking Tiger Mountain begins: with a charging bass drum, a flare of distorted guitar and stacked, soaring vocals. Like that record, Momo handily navigates the middle ground between rock and electronic music, layering spaced-out synths over highwire guitars, creating songs that conjure both the past and the future at the same time. Largely the brainchild of primary songwriters Noel Heroux and Chris Principe, Hooray for Earth are masters at swaddling irresistible pop hooks in layers of sinewave electronics.
