like this a lot

Desperate Journalist album is out! And it's really good.

Huh, an xp!

!!

star tropics has a 'favorite sarah tracks' spotify playlist so you know they're legit

Star Tropics song hits the spot! Saved that playlist. It's very jangly weather where I am rn

star tropics - esp. the guitar tone - sounds very much like the field mice with a female singer.

looking forward to the sir babygirl album

This is really good. Especially 'Flirting With You'

Spook School are splitting up ;_;

I know :( at least they are doing a final tour. Gullivers should be fun

really charmed by And The Kids, this was my favorite track from their new album

speaking of indiepop/jangle/etc, Young Guv + Culture Abuse + Tony Molina are headed out on tour all over the place. that's a pretty can't miss bill!

Sad to be posting this only after the band has announced they're breaking up, but there's still a new album by Mauno, who are wonderful:

hovvdy probably doesn't fit the thread title, but their new album impressed me a lot more than i thought it would. dusty guitar rock with some well-placed piano chords, and some songs with trap-influenced drums that fit surprisingly well.

that's a weird name. i read howdy first. melodic slowcore. somewhere in between red house painters and pinback. very nice.

yeah im not sure if it's an alvvays situation where it's pronounced like the 'w' but they use the v's for seo purposes, or if it's actually pronounced hovdy

Does have a Pinback feel.

xp to self -- it's pronounced HOWDY

Not sure if this is quite the right thread for it as it certainly isn't twee or jangle, but the last significant discussion here on her work happened in the 2017 Album Poll Results thread and that doesn't seem like the right one to bump either. Anyway: Louise Burns has a new album out, and it's great: https://open.spotify.com/album/3QLtE1LINSmpm5b2ITlZ5g

Made one of these for 2020

hardly seem to have listened to any new indiepop in 2019, and certainly not any new bands, as it seems the only indiepop albums I have liked from 2019 are all from reunited bands:

Groove Farm - Groovy Pharmacy
Rocketship - Thanks To You
Vivian Girls - Memory

maybe 2020 will be the year I get back into indiepop?

great song by culk. never heard of them before.
