White Denim - "Heart From All Of Us" White Denim pap cloudly from the air around my notepad. They hup clicking and stup fupping in their sole-slapping leathers. Down dirt road microphones and smoke-tray dishrags. They clop together bent old drawn funnies and rock tunes, training them all the way to the station, cabbing it every day to the grocery store. They quit kissing and replaced it wit...
white denim After releasing their stellar Workout Holiday LP in the UK to unequivocally glowing reviews , then proceeding to tear up clubs all over Europe, TX's White Denim is finally set to release their self-produced Exposion LP here in the states in November on Austin's young Transmission label. I might've gone on enough about how much I love these dudes over the last couple years, so...

I introduced myself and told [...]
Okay, let's try this again. Here's the new video for White Denim's latest UK single, "Shake Shake Shake," featuring a new and improved (and significantly dirtier) tripped-out mix of the song. Hopefully it's up for good this time:**********************************************previously:mp3:white denim :: sittingwhite denim :: mess your hair up~~
I’m off to Denver for Monolith. I’m not 100% sure that I’ll have an internet connection while I’m out there, so I’ve set a few of my favorite videos to go up while I’m gone. Here’s one I hadn’t seen by White Denim, one of my most anticipated acts of Monolith. This is scenes from [...]
If you're in Dallas this weekend, come see White Denim on Saturday night at Pastime Tavern , before they head off to Iceland . Opening the show will be North TX locals and good friends of WD, PVC Street Gang . I've yet to catch the group's live show, but the extremely taut urgency in the vocals and overall sense of tension these two create on the super tight new song "Cutlass " should be ...
Thanks to Chris for this new White Denim song from their upcoming album Explosion. MP3: White Denim - Sitting This is a pretty different White Denim than I'm used to hearing. It sounds like the Cold War Kids with a little bit of the Who thrown in. But whatever they've got bubbling around in their heads, [...]~~
Austin, Texas' rabble-rousing rockers White Denim and rock-fracturing stadium-gazing Scots Biffy Clyro have joined the bill for this year's Iceland Airwaves music festival. The SXSW/Camden Crawl/Great Escape-like festival takes place in less than four weeks time (October 15th-19th) and will see some of the year's finest acts play live, DJ and party across the length and breadth of Reykjavik.

A Place To Bury Strangers, White Denim, Holy Fuck, Veil Veil Vanish(Bottom Of The Hill, San Francisco CA, 02/29/2008)On my way to the Bottom Of The Hill, I stop by at the Parkside for a Noise Pop happy hour show. I knew I was sadly going to miss Portland's High Violets (sometimes the vegetarian super burrito at El Farolito takes precedence), but I arrive in time to enjoy a leisurely beer with t...
The band is White Denim and the song is "Shake Shake Shake" and it's an awesome explosion of raw garage guitar, plus this video is trashy and edgy in the right way. I got hipped to this via Sasha Frere-Jones blog at the New Yorker.http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/sashafrerejones/2008/12/the-best-record.html#strokes
I still get sucked in by the hyper intensive buzz of amateur Indie bloggers from across the Atlantic. They write parables of other worldly affectations for bands I've never heard of, and by ingesting their superlatives hope that I'm one step ahead when the inevitable U.K. assault takes place. The bait that dragged my right hand directly in the direction of my wallet pocket was that this Austin ...
