I really like Neko Case, and Seapony, but they don't sound similar and Seapony don't sound like Raveonettes at all -- I think the premise of the thread is a bit baffling.

I thought Raveonettes were kind of twangy 50s pastiche, in part?
Neko Case is country and is a great auteur, writer of strange structures etc - not really typical of indiepop.

Seems like one of my Daily Mixes is based on those times I have listened to these kind of artists, only it is fleshed out by other artists I wouldn’t put in this category, such as The Yeah Yeah Yeahs- even Spotify is confused by the thread title!

Thread title was supposed to be shorthand for (usually retro) Lo-fi track plus Big Belter voice.

I'm also slightly confused by the thread title but if you like Seapony (which I do) a couple of them were previously in a band called Transmittens which are along the same lines.

Perhaps I could have called the thread Bands that sound like Suicide fronted by Syd Straw. Probably would have been equally confusing.

was gonna offer a "whut" at the name of this thread, but then i read this:_wild nothing or beach fossils or seapony or tennis or whomever thats hardly an less accessible or obscure than rangda or emeralds or zola jesus_does that say the former group of bands is approximately as accessible and obscure as the latter group or am i reading it wrong?

The Daily Mix just delivered Shannon and the Clams, which is close but no cigar.

Playlist just yielded La Sera, which totally fits

this year's shannon and the clams record is very good (not in a way that fits this thread tho)
