If it sounds a little late in the day to be caffeinating, it’s not: Their work day often starts around 10:00 p.m., as it did on Tuesday night, when Theresa Wayman, Jenny Lee Lindberg, Emily Kokal, and Stella Mozgawa took the stage to perform their signature brand of spectral rock to a sold-out crowd at Webster Hall. There, the band’s shoe-gaze-y jams and hypnotic vocals were just as compelling as their rock star hair. Much like the music, their chromatic dye jobs and second-day textured strands walked the line between pretty and punk, while their onstage cat eyeliner had settled into a slept-in smolder.

PLAYLIST PLAYLIST PLAYLIST PLAYLIST PLAYLIST PLAYLIST PLAYLIST EDITORIAL Ya en el número anterior nos dimos cuenta de que íbamos a tener un lindo problema cada vez que armáramos la pauta de nuestras edi- ciones. Teníamos mucho más contenido que el que podíamos incluir en la revista. El mes pasado tuvimos cinco entrevistas con artistas que nos gustaban mucho: la portada que le dimos Silversun Pickups dio la vuelta al mundo y el mismo grupo en sus redes sociales nos agradeció la tribuna que les dimos. Hablamos con Victoria Legrand de Beach House, con Hamilton Leithauser de The Walkmen, con Dan Bejar de Destroyer y con Sam Beam, alma de Iron & Wine. Esas fueron las que publicamos, pero lo que ustedes no saben es que nos tuvimos que guardar un par más, algunas por embargo y otras por precaución, por si los planes que estábamos tramando para este número no resul- taran. Era como nuestro plan B. A mitad de septiembre nos dimos cuenta que no tendríamos que ocupar nuestro plan alternativo, porque tal como nos pasó en el nú- mero anterior, teníamos tanto material que una vez más tendríamos que dejar algo de lado. Pero en una reunión editorial express, decidi- mos que no nos guardaríamos nada, para esta edición tiraríamos todo lo que teníamos a la parrilla. En total tenemos DIEZ fabulosas entre- vistas para ustedes. Desde artistas emergentes a bandas ya consa- gradas, pasando por una actriz estadounidense que brilla en TV y el cine, este número de octubre es el primero de nuestros especiales de entrevistas.
