| 36 Hours in Pittsburgh (New York Times) |
| A cable car gives passengers great views of the city. PITTSBURGH has undergone a striking renaissance from a down-and-out smokestack to a gleaming cultural oasis. But old stereotypes die hard, and Pittsburgh probably doesn’t make many people’s short list for a cosmopolitan getaway. |

| Your Daily Lick: The VSS (East Bay Express) |
| Defunct Berkeley band the VSS originally released its sole full-length, Nervous Circuits - a nihilistic, gripping blend of hardcore, post-punk, and gothic electronics - on Honey Bear Records in 1997. The album led the way for groups like the Faint and Death From Above 1979, yet still feels edgy today - hence this welcome reissue celebrating its tenth anniversary. |
