Album Review: The She’s – Dreamers EP
I’m a little burnt out and cynical at the age of 37 (in a row), and I often find things that used to be interesting to me (slot machines, the NBA) feel absolutely pointless. Next thing I know, I feel like Stan does after his 10th birthday in the South Park where everything sounds like shit to him. Luckily for you, the She’s single-handedly prevent me from being an asshole, at least while listening to these six new tracks. Continue reading “Album Review: The She’s – Dreamers EP”
Photo Gallery: Social Studies, Ash Reiter, The She’s at Brick & Mortar Music Hall
Last Monday, Spinning Platters had the opportunity to present the final night of Social Studies’ 4 week residency at Brick & Mortar Music Hall. Our own Editor In Chief, Gordon Elgart, entertained the crowd between sets as in house DJ, and we enjoyed sets by garage rock locals The She’s, who introduced us to their new bassist that night, a blistering set of psych from Ash Reiter, and, of course, an hour long set of old and new songs from Social Studies. For those who missed it, here are a few pics from the show, taken by the fantastic Kara Murphy.

Spinning Platters Weekly Guide to Bay Area Concerts, 8/15/13-8/21/13
Recovering from Outside Lands has been, well, tough this year. However, much like a hangover, you really just need a little more music the next morning to feel normal again.

Noise Pop Show Review: The Thermals with Dirty Ghosts and The She’s at the Rickshaw Stop, 3/1/2013
It’s about halfway through Goddamn the Light that I realize something is off about the song. Up to this point, the Thermals set has been impeccable, but now there’s something clearly missing. The rhythm is all off, and as I scan the stage for an explanation, it dawns on me: The Thermals don’t have their drummer anymore. We have their drummer. Westin Glass has abandoned his kit to crowd surf, and he’s loving every minute of it.
