sxsw.

sxsw--this marvelous thing that comes to austin every spring--brings joy, frustration, hope, and loathing--as the descending mass of hipsters, scenesters, travelers, and wanderers infiltrate and addend a city already steeped in back-loaded, spinning, ironic youth. part glorious, part iniquitous--it might not be more than a fleeting microcosm exposing our daily commonality--but we love it regardless. it can leave us threadbare, but is usually worth the things we discover.

e.g.

the low anthem.

she and him.

oh no ono

miike snow.

brooklyn rider.

wakey wakey.

fyfe dangerfield.

paul banks. & the carousels.
