Here's the whole story: Wednesday night we went to Neumo's to hear We Are Scientists (WAS). There. That's not a good story? Ah, okay, okay, we'll...we'll punch it up. More first act? We Are Scientists are not scientists (Ha! Misdirection!) but are two guys called Keith Murray (guitar, lead vocals) and Chris Cain (bass guitar, backing vocals), and then there's two other guys, a drummer and a keyboard fellow. (We're tempted to go on and......

ENJOY THE HEAT: Coleman Pool, a public pool in West Seattle is an inexpensive way to enjoy the warm weather (finally!).

Seattlest had the chance to take in quite a few good shows over the past week. Saturday night was no exception. It was just last March when we first saw Art Brut here in Seattle. They were still relatively unknown at the time, having just released their debut album Bang Bang Rock & Roll in the States. After hearing their album, we weren't sure then they could pull off the live show. After their......

LAist is flashing a sad peace out to their editor Carolyn Kellogg with one hand and bumping knuckles with their new head typist L.A. blogger king Tony Pierce with the other. Where do ist editors go when they hang up the 'editorial we'? They take on MySpace, apparently. At least Ben Brown does. Austinist reminds of the just rewards of less savory careers this week and then they witness the Arctic Monkeys and We Are......

We Are Scientists (not to be confused with one of Seattlest's all-time fav GBV songs) are happening at the Croc tomorrow night with Tourist and if recent raves are to be believed they're quite the little up and comers. Check Jeff Baum on Gothamist: One thing that separates these guys from the dozen other bands being name checked across the internet every day is that they reek of mass appeal. This is music that should......
