If the past few months are any indication, 2009 might just be the year that Austin finally breaks wide as a cohesive “scene,” all due to its burgeoning crop of young bands making Nuggets-inspired garage-rock and bleary-eyed psychedelia sound fresh again. Leading the pack is strangled-janglers The Strange Boys, who were recently coronated as “Our New Favorite Band” in Rolling Stone thanks to a tip from The Black Keys’ Patrick Carney. more at austin.decider.com

The blissfully slacked-out La Snacks would have found good company in the mid-’90s, sandwiched on a Pavement/Archers Of Loaf bill—but even Pavement rarely wrote songs as simultaneously snarky and reverent as “Emo Kind Of Love.” more at austin.decider.com

Its good to know good punk rock is coming back to Austin in 2009.
If your impression of one-man bands is limited to Dick Van Dyke banging cymbals with his knees in Mary Poppins, check out Oklahoma’s El Paso Hot Button, a lone tornado from the Dust Bowl who kicks up a furious concoction of blues, punk, and metal like he’s The White Stripe. more at austin.decider.com
