Q&A With Angel Olsen, Playing Normaltown Hall Tuesday
Someone needs to get Angel Olsen's parents to kiss at the Enchantment Under the Sea dance, and fast!
When Flagpole caught up with Olsen last week, she was wrapping up a rehearsal in Chicago with her new band, which will back her at her Normaltown Hall appearance Tuesday, Oct. 8. Talking over the traffic on Milwaukee Avenue, amidst professions of adoration for her adopted hometown and Esoteric Tapioca, she discussed her writing process and the unexpected freedom that comes with being a touring musician.

Diarrhea Planet Plays Georgia Theatre Tonight
They've been named checked by Patrick Stickles on Titus Andronicus' latest album, Local Business. They have more guitarists than Iron Maiden, if you can believe that. They've lapped the U.S. a few times this year and have what is arguably the most obscene name of any active band right now (one booking agent refused to work with them unless they changed it). Everything about the band and its sound screams reckless abandon.

Live Review: X and Blondie at Buckhead Theatre, Tuesday, Oct. 1
Blondie
I'd been looking forward to this double-bill for weeks, and OK, I'll admit it: I lost all semblance of cool during X's set. Every time the band would plow through a classic song ("Los Angeles," "Nausea," "The World's A Mess; It's In My Kiss" et al), I found myself leaping off the ground, shouting along and sweating it all out.
Although I was hardly the only ardent fan, there were a fair amount of people in my immediate vicinity that clearly hadn't taken their Geritol, gently sipping wine and not caring less that behind nearly every chooglin' Chuck Berry riff sat harrowing and horrifying tales a la “Johnny Hit And Run Paulene.”
