Music news HaveYouHeard.net presents Nomen Novum / Future Islands at 97 Estoria Mon., Nov. 10

Each week the folks at HaveyouHeard.net set the stage for a band to play a free show at Cabbagetown hipster spot, 97 Estoria. After these show the band sticks around to spin records and keep the party going as long as the law will allow. This week local freak rock duo Nomen Novum holds it down, with an opening set from Baltimore's Future Islands.
Music starts at 9 p.m.
For those who are unfamiliar, Nomen Novum is one of the more recent weirdo psych/art rock acts to come together in Atlanta. Their debut "Mantis Man," "Aunt Urn" b/w "Vinyl" 7-inch was released a few months back on Operation Get Jacked! The green-vinyl offering features three of the coolest and catchiest, rounds of acid-drenched acoustic minimalism and strummed punk anthems I've heard in a while. The record didn't come with any kind of formal press materials, but it did come with a post-it note that says, "not garage punk," which says an awful lot about their spirit.
