Kimmel gets Feisty.

Set your DVRs accordingly for the week of June 22nd:

Monday

NBC | Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (12:20AM) : The Roots play houseband, as always, which is more than enough reason to tune in and Sonic Youth stops by to perform “No Way” off of The Eternal

NBC | Last Call with Carson Daly (1:35AM) : Brooklyn synthpop Black Kids have a sickenly addictive quality to them, and are back for more after last year’s saccharine mopefest.

Tuesday

NBC | The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien (11:35PM) : What the world needs more of is Elvis Costello, and I’m glad the late night gods have recognized this.

CBS | Late Show with David Letterman (11:30PM) : curious pairing but I trust it, MSTRKRFT appears with John Legend

NBC | Last Call with Carson Daly (1:35AM) : San Diego’s Crocodiles are enjoying some publicity after Rolling Stone called them Hot. But we knew it all along, didn’t we?

Wednesday

NBC | The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien (11:35PM) : Wilco (The Band) might play “Wilco (The Song)” from their newest Wilco (The Album). Way to get meta, guys.

CBS | Late Show with David Letterman (11:30PM) : Brooklyn darling St. Vincent shows off her Actor side.

ABC | Jimmy Kimmel Live! (12:05AM) : Bat For Lashes presents material from her newest, Two Suns, but who will show up? Natasha Khan or alter-ego Pearl?

NBC | Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (12:20AM) : The Roots are actually the musical guest, so I guess that means they’re all the overtime the deserve.

NBC | Last Call with Carson Daly (1:35AM) : Norway’s Ida Maria’s fiercely provocative declarations will certainly shake up all of Carson’s years of TRL pandering. Cheers, Daly.

Thursday

NBC | Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (12:20AM) : Indie-rock patriarchs Dinosaur Jr. are back with Farm, which has possibly the best cover art I’ve seen all year.

NBC | Last Call with Carson Daly (1:35AM) : Natasha Khan’s Bat For Lashes runs through the New York circuit…

Friday

NBC | The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien (11:35PM) : Spinal Tap. Yes.

CBS | Late Show with David Letterman (11:30PM) : It’s been awhile, but glad to see Regina Spektor tickle the ivories once more.

NBC | Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (12:20AM) : Grizzly Bear’s back home in New York after a short tour. Rest up, guys, it’s going to be a busy year.

ABC | Jimmy Kimmel Live! (12:05AM) : Parisian pop idols Phoenix enjoy a wave of deserved attention for their latest, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix.

CBS | Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (12:35AM) : Though you might know them best from an Apple commercial, Brooklyn trio Chairlift’s debut is worth more than just “Bruises”
