PsychoCandy Radio September 12, 2008: Spaghetti Western Post-Punk, Finn Riggins, Foals, Bauhaus, The Fall, etc.

Well, isn't this just jammin'? We've got a new post for your viewing pleasure. We also have a brand new episode airing this evening. I'll get the podcast up soon, probably as early as tomorrow. But tonight, I am beat and sleep...or to go out and have fun. Perhaps I'll head over to the First National Bar here in Pocatello to see the always fun and high-energy Hailey, Idaho trio Finn Riggins. They are playing at 9pm with local indie-popsters Spondee, as well as the San Francisco group Low Red Land.

As for tonight's program, the first half is Country-infused and Spaghetti Westernesque Post-punk from the likes of The Lords of the New Church, Pixies, Gun Club, and Theatre of Hate, among others. The second half kicks it up a notch with our usual (mostly) PsychoCandy Radio fare. One band of note in this hour is the Oxford, United Kingdom group Foals, who are playing in Salt Lake City tomorrow evening at Kilby Court with The Future of the Ghost.

The playlist is below, and don't miss the bonus videos. They're both ace.
