Music about crocodiles and alligators to start off this week’s Brainwaves. From The Beach Boys, Echo and the Bunnymen, R.E.M., Tilly and the Wall and Neil Cicierega. Plus Regina Spektor, Matt Pond PA and Jonathan Coulton are having a party. When? On Saturday night of course, so say the Bay City Rollers.
