What’s the matter, hipster? Polyphonic Spree not happy enough? Architecture in Helsinki not quite capture that child-like innosense you’re looking for? Well, you can thank Dean from The Secret Unicorns Forum for bringing The Triangles to my attention.

As is the trend with most bands that make me feel all gooey inside, The Triangles hail from Australia. I’m hoping Architecture in Helsinki will bring them along next time they tour the states. But even if they don’t, at least I have their music - and that’s good enough for me.

NOTE: Since I probably won’t be doing a review of the Cat Power show (no photos = no review), here are some key points:
-she covered a Will Oldham song, “All I Have to Do Is Dream,” and half of “House of the Rising Sun.” “All I Have to Do Is Dream” was done on the piano and actually really good.
-we figured she drank a lot right before coming out, because she actually got more drunk as the show went along, even though she never drank while on stage
-”The Greatest” was wonderful. Most of the other songs got cut off, turned into a medley, or performed at a sub-par level
