The Loom and Sgt Dunbar at Valentines
They're a sextet.
Here's something to look forward to this week: Brooklyn indie folk group The Loom is playing Valentine's this Saturday with Sgt. Dunbar and the Hobo Banned.
The Loom was featured in Paste's "Best of What's Next" earlier this summer. We got a preview of their upcoming album, Teeth -- it's good. Here's a clip of them playing at SXSW earlier this year. (They sound a little bit like the The National.) They'll be a good match on the slate with Sgt. Dunbar.
Also on the bill that night: Baltimore's The Eureka Birds and Mia Riddle, also from Brooklyn.
Doors are 8pm. Tickets are just $7. That's a solid night of music for just a few bucks.

Why is it that all Brooklyn hipster bands look like a group of post-collegiate, Gen-Y, art-snob, social couples?
To even better illustrate this, Here is this group playing Trivial pursuit.

Really? I think they like look like dangerous sexy rebels, wearing sexy sexy dangerpants while breaking the law.
To even better illustrate this, here is the group base jumping with Bjork and a polar bear.

@scumbag: not enough facial hair on that last one. Missing a shark with a laser and a scarf too. Where is my photoshop...
