Published: May 23, 2007You probably haven't heard of Cajun Dance Party yet, but across the pond, the indie-pop quintet is the next big thing. Since winning its high-school Battle of the Bands, CDP has been selling out shows and sorting through label offers. The debut seven-inch single, "The Next Untouchable," was limited to only 500 copies, and luckily, one was sent to My Old Kentucky Blog (myoldkyhome.blogspot.com) earlier this month. Download the track and head over to the group's page at www.isound.com/cajun_dance_party for a few demos. By the time the full-length drops, CDP's members should be able to celebrate with a pint — in their hometown of London, at least.
Expect the median age in the mosh pit to be a bit higher this summer; reunions are running rampant. But if your self-defense mechanisms aren't what they used to be, head over to Stereogum.com for "Disappear," the first single from the upcoming Meat Puppets album, Rise to Your Knees. The album hits shelves July 17 and is the first to feature both Kirkwood brothers since 1995. Afterwards, fulfill your craving for early alt-rock nostalgia with the title track from Buffalo Tom's Three Easy Pieces, also due out this summer.
