"Camera" - Lacona
"(No Misgivings) Dendrochronology" - Lacona

Chicago alt/art-rockers Lacona are headlining the Chicago Showcase on Thursday night at Arlene's Grocery. The band released a great full length CD, Pantomime, early this year which the Chicago Reader described as having a "romantic-80's-pop sense of melody." The band's music is hard to classify into any one particular genre but one point of comparison would be the art-rock of Television meets Radiohead.

They band is trying out some new material on the road that will be on their next disc and some of the new tracks are posted above.

If you are like me and didn't bother with a badge this year, tickets for the show are $10. Lacona goes on at Midnight and the other bands on the bill are:

07:00 PM - Deanna Devore
08:00 PM - Bailiff
08:45 PM - Needers & Givers
09:30 PM - Joe Pug
10:15 PM - Brighton, MA
