I have no idea what it is I'm supposed to do. Please advise.

Clinic's new album Do It! will probably fly mostly under the record this year because, with very few elite exceptions, we tend to value bands we haven't ever heard of that do things we haven't heard done before (at least not very much) more than we value bands we like having around for doing their thing well. And this is arguably too bad, but then again Clinic's got a pretty good career going so whatever. Show your appreciation by giving the fuzzy, stompy, world-stew hash party Do It! a few listens (it's one of their stronger and more bracing efforts, I think, just song-by-song), and maybe by seeing the psych-popping Scousers give the back catalogue a spin tonight at the Music Hall of Williamsburg.
Tonight's show, incidentally, is also an opportunity for You to Hear the NYC Band Violens, convenient as they're apparently an NYC Band You Need to Hear, so there's that. And personal favorites CaUSE co-MOTION!, who I always say sound like Television Personalities on pogo sticks, because they do.
