[News] Indians Announces North American Tour
Copenhagen solo musician Indians has made quite the impression on me, despite having only released two songs, both "Magic Kids" and "I Am Haunted". Either way, Indians has been making immense progress so far this year, and that has turned into a great opportunity supporting indie rock outfit Other Lives during their North American tour this fall. The massive tour will kick off on October 19th in Boulder, CO, and will take both bands all across the continent for a total of 36 shows in 50 days. Check out the full tour schedule after the jump.

[Watch] Frank Ocean Performs with Earl Sweatshirt and Covers Prince at L.A. Show
Frank Ocean performed at Los Angeles' The Wiltern last night for his Channel Orange release show, and the night offered up a few nice surprises. For those lucky enough to have been there, Ocean was joined on stage by fellow Odd Future member Earl Sweatshirt for the song "Super Rich Kids", and the attendees couldn't help but scream wildly as Earl strolled in casually. The screaming didn't stop there, either, as Ocean's cover of Prince's "When You Were Mine" got a huge reaction from the crowd. Check out fan footage of both after the jump.

[Listen] Stars - "Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give It"
Stars are back with yet another single from their forthcoming sixth studio LP The North, and it will easily win this year's award for lengthiest song title (the award for lengthiest album title goes to Fiona Apple). "Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give It", title aside, is a fantastic indie pop arrangement, with a catchy, rhythmic guitar hook and relentless percussion offering a wholly pleasant listen. Listen to the single below.
As well, if you've yet to hear "Theory of Relativity", the lead single from The North, head here, and check out the band's full tour itinerary after the jump, including a Canadian co-headlining tour with Metric.
