Secret Machines--Dallas-to-NYC ex-pats Josh Garza and bros Ben and Brandon Curtis--release their new disc Ten Silver Drops on April 25; Interweb users, feel free to get it now from iTunes. We review the disc next week, but if you want a sneak peek, here's the video for "Lightning Blue Eyes," a highlight. Also available from YouTube is some smashing bootlegged video of the boys performing "Sad and Lonely" at the Bonnaroo hippie-space-rock-jam-band shindig last year. Good enough picture, great sound--which makes sense, because live is the only way to really get what makes the Machines tick. --Robert Wilonsky
