The Big Pink Playing NYC In December, Twice

Well, that didn't take long. The Big Pink, whose live-streaming album has been absolutely slaying us these past couple days, have announced their first New York dates. The band will play the Bowery Ballroom on December 3 and the Music Hall of Williamsburg on December 4. Hopefully the whole thing will be every bit as moody and grainy and leathery as this confusing video 4AD made with the band a month or so back. Anyway, go listen to A Brief History of Love, before we all get cut off August 10. After that, you'll actually have to buy the record. [Pitchfork]
