Annuals full-length followup to Be He Me also includes trees on its cover, but these look happier. They look like the happiest trees (and clouds) ever because the painting's a Bob Ross original. You should already know about the gentle... CONTINUE READING ANNUALS' SUCH FUN ALBUM ART»

Old-timey Band To Watch Annuals were rocking "Carry Around" everywhere this past SXSW: Now they have a proper video for the tune, the same puppy they performed on Conan way back in January. Yup, it's kinda fascinating when a group... CONTINUE READING NEW ANNUALS VIDEO - "CARRY AROUND"»

If Friday's 'Roo music trolling left something to be desired, Saturday's lineup was more than just compensation.
