After four years without releasing a record, Jupiter Watts returns with Take Time, a nearly 37 minute record broken up into five long songs. It’s very chilled out and pretty guitar driven songwriting that after one listen I might describe as Neil Young on Xanax. So it requires a patient ear and the right mood, but with those prerequisites, it’s a beautiful record. Take Time will be available on vinyl with a digital download on Two Sheds, and you can pick it up at their release show with What Happened To Your Fire, Tiger? and Spirits… at The Earl Saturday (April 23).

Friday night it continues at The Earl with Allnightdrugprowlingwolves, Lay Down Mains, The Press, The Yum yum Tree, Citified, and Fernadina. The Coathangers CD release party is at The Star Bar Friday night. If you’re more hippy than hipster, Dark Star Orchestra are at the Variety Playhouse Friday night. If none of those strike your fancy there is The Pendletons, Auditioning Alice, Sonen, and The Sea Lions at Lenny’s.

Saturday night The National, The Rosebuds, and Doveman are at The Variety Playhouse. The Other Sound Festival continues at Lenny’s with Luigi, Club Awesome, One Hand Loves The Other, The Orphins, The Jupiter Watts, Novelift, Silent Kids, and Disassemble. Another big show Saturday night is The Close‘s final show at the Earl with The Liverhearts and Teen Wheat.
