IndianGiver — Plafond EP

If you were to peruse the “About” section of IndianGiver’s Facebook page, you’ll notice how the instruments attributed to each of the Oklahoma City band’s five members are described with downright flippancy: Dylan Jordan plays “sticks & animal skins,” while Jazzton Rodriguez earns his keep with “shanties & loud noises,” and so on.

Various artists — Never Give Up: Celebrating 10 Years of The Postal Service

Few indie bands have had the impact on current music that The Postal Service has. Even fewer have done so with only one album.

Big Worm — Bench All-Stars

Fans of the comedy classic Friday may recognize the name Big Worm, but the Big Worm behind Bench All-Stars is rooted not in South Central L.A., but on the streets of Oklahoma City.

Code 22 — Going Soft: The Acoustic Album!

The guys of Oklahoma City’s Code 22 seem like a likable group of fellas. Their latest release, Going Soft: The Acoustic Album!, is likable enough as well — so likable that on first listen, I took its clean, acoustic sound and clear, unstressed vocals as an alternative praise-and-worship band.

Eureeka — Polysynthetic Fields

It’s always refreshing to hear music that embraces its own eccentricity, yet presents it in an accessible and meek fashion. Eureeka — the Norman-based duo of Jordan Vargas and Devin Wahl — has tapped into this rarified air on its self-released EP, Polysynthetic Fields.

Metro pop-rockers The Stock Market Crash have a major crush on their Oklahoma City audience. To show their love, band members are giving away hand-painted valentines Friday night in the form of a limited-edition single containing five new songs.

Friday's show at The Conservatory, 8911 N. Western, will be the band's first in six months, according to guitar player Derek Knowlton. The four-piece has spent the time writing, rehearsing and recording demos, some of which caught the ear of Linda Perry, best known for her stint as the front woman of 4 Non Blondes and for songs she has written for the likes of:
" Pink,
" Gwen Stefani and
" Christina Aguilera.

Knowlton said the group will head to California this spring to work with Perry one-on-one.

CONCERT
Each "Letters to St. Valentine" single became an art project for the band, Knowlton said.

"They aren't mass-produced in any way," he said. "We went wild, had a blast and made each one unique."

Sharing the bill Friday are:
" OKC's lush indie-rock band The Uglysuit and
" DJs from Dance Robots, Dance!

Knowlton said everyone is encouraged to wear their hearts on their sleeves " literally " for the "My Bloody Valentine" show, which the band hopes will be a crazy costume party with thrift-store prom dresses and fake blood spatters.

The all-ages show is $7 and starts at 8 p.m. For more information, call 607-4805. "Joe Wertz
