OV WEEKLY: The Start Of Something Spooky


This week at OV is a heavy one. We've got a lot on our plate and are looking to share the best bits with you. Hungry? Then let's get to the Weekly! (Also look at that cute lil bat. Ugh.)


Monday, September 29th
The Orwells @ Fonda Theatre! Fenech Soler Monday Night Residency @ The Echo!

To get your week started right, head over to the Fonda Theatre tonight for a sure-to-be-crazy night of music from The Orwells! Longtime snot-nosed punk ruffians and perennial OV favorites, The Orwells descend on the Fonda tonight in support of their newest album Disgraceland. Chock full of garage crushing punk and plenty of open road screamers, Disgraceland is the perfect album to get those Monday night blues out with, so we better see you rockin' out tonight at the Fonda!



Also on tap: Fenech Soler @ The Echo!

Sometimes when the world gets this hot, music is the only thing that gets those legs moving. And so for their September residency, our buds at The Echo have booked the eminently danceable Fenech Soler to motivate those calves and thighs! Purveyors of groove-centric electro-rock, Fenech Soler have recently embraced their pop leanings with heartfelt punch, opening up their hearts and dance moves to the world with 2012's Rituals, which catapulted Fenech Soler to widespread attention across Europe. Now looking to conquer U.S soils, Fenech Soler take over The Echo tonight at 9PM and are ready to get those sloppy September feet jumping again. To get ready for tonight's show, check out Fenech Soler's single "Magnetic" below and then meet us at The Echo at 9!

New Releases! RCLA! Wand/La Luz @ The Echo! Talk In Tongues @ The Roxy!

The hits keep on coming at OV with new releases this week! Headlined by new albums from The Drums a killer Oasis reissue, OV's got you covered on the new, old and everything in between. There's more to grab, but for that, you're gonna have to check the full list on our blog tomorrow morning!



After you've survived our new release storm, you best be bringing that new vinyl down to RCLA at El Prado to give it a virgin spin! The best place to hear what your local buds are digging, RCLA gives YOU the opportunity to spin your records and even snag a free drink in the process! The fun gets started at 9PM, so dig out those LPs and get ready for a night of great music!

If you're looking for some live music this Tuesday night, we've got plenty of options for ya as OV faves La Luz, Wand and Talk In Tongues are playing across L.A! First up, La Luz will be serving up 60s vibes and girl group choruses as openers for Wand at The Echo before their psych-rock partners floor the room with their swirling brand of guitar myth-making. A perfect one-two punch. Across town, Talk In Tongues will be opening for the perpetually sublime Cibo Matto at the Roxy! Finishing up the fine details of their newest album, (and recently featured on Noisey!!) tonight is the perfect place to sneak a peek at the future of Talk In Tongues while enjoying the awesome power of Cibo Matto! See you there!

The Start Of Something Spooky!

Oh yes. It's finally October. Which means something wicked this way comes.. What will it be? Simone brandishing her latest wall-of-noise punk record? The wail of Christine's EEEEEEEs emanating from every dark corner? The ghost of single Sean (RIP)? Who knows, but no matter what, it's gonna be 31 days of fright right here at OV. So you better keep a keen eye on the blog so you've got the drop on Halloween at OV before it's too late..

The War On Drugs @ Fonda Theatre!

One of our most anticipated shows of the year, tonight at the Fonda, The War On Drugs make their L.A debut in support of their newest album Lost In The Dream! An OV fave and one of our best sellers, Lost In The Dream is the perfect record for the transition into Fall and longer, colder nights. Full of cascading guitars and hazy lyrics, Lost In The Dream mixes the voices of Springsteen and Dylan into a heady Americana mix that we just can't get enough of and can't wait to see live tonight at the Fonda!




Fiday, October 3rd
Vinyl For A Cause!

We all know that buying LPs is good for our own souls, but did you know they can also be good for others? Well they can, and all October, OV will be supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month by stocking some super-exclusive pink vinyl whose sales go in direct support of Gilda's Club! Keep on the lookout for a blog containing the full deets and featured releases, and join us in support of breast cancer awareness!

Glass Animals In-Store @ 1PM!

Come on down today at 1PM to see Glass Animals perform in our loft! Straight out of the UK, Glass Animals is currently on a world wide tour supporting their debut album ZABA. Somewhere between ethereal soundscape and dance music lies the unique sound that the synth pop band has crafted for themselves. Their cerebral music is jam-packed with tasty harmonies, warm synths, tribal percussion and punchy baselines creating a vibe that makes you want to chill out and dance your face off at the same time. They're playing 2 sold out shows at The Troubadour, so this could be your only chance to see them until the next time they're in LA! The show gets started early, so don't miss out!



Giveaways This Week!
The Horrors @ The Mayan 10/15 - 1 pair comes with the purchase of The Horrors' newest LP Luminous!

Keep an eye on our Twitter/Facebook for future giveaways!


Now that we've planned your week, you better check under your bed every night. You never know where Emily may strike from next!
