Worth documenting perhaps, but could do without another rehash of the Tony Wilson/ Alan McGee/ Geoff Travers Stories TBH.

Yeah, looking at the guy's blog, I think that might be the bulk of it.

Lies and slander. It is pretty good though

Favourite Roger Gunnarsson thing is The Garlands, but that Pushy Parents EP is 100% gold.
― Cragenham Craig (Craigo Boingo), Saturday, 3 March 2012 02:20 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah I have the Garlands split single with someone and it's great, got it when they played London Popfest a couple of years ago

Besides being a great Godz song, they're a great Chicago band who just released their self-titled album. "Miracle" is on it, though this is technically from the single from last October.

They're like a fuzzy hybrid of The Bats and Outrageous Cherry.

their LP is really good

marty donald demo-
http://soundcloud.com/lost-and-lonesome/last-leaves-the-nights-you
sounds a lot like the lucksmiths obviously. new band 'last leaves' with 3 of the 4 lucksmiths and a new drummer.
― keythhtyek, Tuesday, 20 March 2012 00:50 (twelve years ago) link
do you actually like it?
― groanland (electricsound), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 00:52 (twelve years ago) link
(not a trick q)
yeah. is that the wrong answer?:) i like everything marty though. besides, it's a demo, i am sure when they finish it it will be free jazz skronk and beats.
― keythhtyek, Tuesday, 20 March 2012 01:00 (twelve years ago) link
ha no not wrong, but yeah it's probably my least favourite song of his thus far. will be v interested to see how it goes with the full band treatment. choosing to sing his own songs was an interesting idea

dude's stupid face is a dealbreaker imo. i should have listened to it with the browser minimised.
― trimdon orange explosion (electricsound), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 03:23 (twelve years ago) link
i have been trying to figure out who he sounds like and it finally it me, it's Jónsi from Sigur Rós.
― good luck Peeta Mellark (Bee OK), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 03:23 (twelve years ago) link
it hit

That's not it. He sounds more like a sleepy Antony Hegarty.

I did that.

Sounds like Kermit.

the new Lotus Plaza record (Deerhunter) sounds pretty good to me, esp. considering the fact that im not a Deerhunter fanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbwo-KUXe0k

this Megaphonic Thrift album is better at Imperial Teen than the new Imperial Teen album.
― skip, Thursday, 22 March 2012 01:31 (twelve years ago) link
new single by The School not bad, a bit less of a drag than the non-single tracks on their album. but the opening track is lifting part of the melody of something else and i'm struggling to put my finger on it
and she really needs to lose the fucking autotune
― dieter bummer (electricsound), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 03:07 (twelve years ago) link
music sounds like tramway, it's ok.

i like "give you the ghost" by polica a lot
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Thursday, 29 March 2012 09:25 (twelve years ago) link
the newest klaus & kinski record is really very nice. seems as if they don't get much credit for being kinda great. they churn out the records too.
― keythhtyek, Friday, 30 March 2012 03:20 (twelve years ago) link
listening to the compilation the rainyards put up on bandcamp. fantastic. in spite of having a friend that was obsessed with summershine once upon a time I was completely unaware of their goodness.
― keythhtyek, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:12 (twelve years ago) link
it is a thing of absolute beauty.
― titanius sterlingsmith, fancyman of corwood (electricsound), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:21 (twelve years ago) link
it is. it reminds of rick menck/paul chastain but better than that. papa topo's mini-lp is lovely as well, it is like the school record I was hoping for, in spanish of course.

ha. i really disliked oso panda but the follow up single was good, so i'm interested
― titanius sterlingsmith, fancyman of corwood (electricsound), Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:54 (twelve years ago) link
when they buried oso panda in their next video it was cute. apparently they are like 19. they sound almost cosmopolitan now compared to oso panda. the milkyway influence.

Love the newer Novella stuff. Pretty good live too. Although 'Don't Believe Ayn Rand' has a chorus that I can't help but mishear as 'cheese, sausage roll' (it's 'she's lost control).
― Cragenham Craig (Craigo Boingo), Sunday, 15 April 2012 12:43 (twelve years ago) link
that toy track is pretty good but gosh they are an awkward looking bunch. straight out of my junior high school talent show. be better without the intro.
― keythhtyek, Sunday, 15 April 2012 22:56 (twelve years ago) link
heard a new Allo Darlin' track on the radio yesterday. Sounded pretty good. Anyone heard the album?
― stay in school if you want to kiw (Gukbe), Tuesday, 17 April 2012 20:39 (twelve years ago) link
Pitchfork gushed over it. Usually their acceptable definition of indiepop is something turgid like summer hymns so that review is a surprise.
