Weekly Round Up: Friday 8th April

Not much came through this week in terms of tour news, but what did get announced was absolutely awesome i.e. Weedeater are heading this way with their UK buddies Conan for two shows in July. And locally, Saturnian Noise Collective unveiled an awesome new EP along with a string of tour dates around the country.

In terms of release news, some xool things hit our radar. We were stoked to hear a new offering from upcoming Wellington producer October. Zen Mantra let loose a second single as the release date for their new album inches closer. And in international news, we were stoked to hear the title track from the new coming coming out from Parquet Courts next week.

This week's Caught Live is Scumlord - the solo project of one of The Cavemen - performing 'Let There Be Rock' at Dublin Castle in London...
