Distinguished as a "musical super-family" on their record label Jagjaguar's website, Gayngs consists of a swarm of Minneapolis-based musicians that I honestly can't say I know a great deal about. I just know that their album is something appealing. Check out the lead track 'The Gaudy Side of Town' off Relayted which came out earlier this month.

New Release: Gayngs: Relayted (P4k)

Good for Stephin Merritt and the brains behind the upcoming documentary 'Strange Powers' about him and The Magnetic Fields. They're getting a big ol' national release for the film.

Pretty gentlemanly of the guy from Sleigh Bells to invite our videographer here up on stage towards the end.

I'm not even going, but I'm excited for anyone who is. At first glance, Sunday looks the strongest to me - citing: Gorillaz, Thom Yorke, Sly Stone, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Big Pink, Spoon, and kicking things off with Local Natives.

Band that got the rawest deal on their time slot: Frightened Rabbit (photo above), 2:30 in the afternoon on Saturday on the outside stage. Steamy.

This video is frustrating as hell. Good song though.

M. Ward came up with the idea to start this band, it's been dynamite ever since then.

Prepare to feel at ease.

Their much anticipated, debut full-length Gorilla Manor hits U.S. shelves today.

Pitchfork gave it an 8.4 (out of 10). What does that mean? To quote Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez: "Now we can play forever." (Or at least tour for like three years.)

I saw this band three times at CMJ last year. I highly recommend this band. Get Gorilla Manor on vinyl here.
