For every band that can pull off the American Football/American Analog Set type of glistening guitar pop, there are thousands, THOUSANDS, that make an absolute mess of it. I think Beach Moon/Peach Moon do the sound all sorts of justice, though, and I bet you’d agree.
Since I can only assume you ran out and got your hands on Girls Names’ “Zero Triptych” single after I posted about it a few months ago, it’s only fair I tell you about their follow up. “Reticence” starts off like an air raid siren, then settles into a Smiths/New Order groove. It’s the first single off of the band’s Arms Around A Vision LP, out 10/2 through Tough Love.
If you’ve been listening to the show with any regularity for the past few months, you’re probably aware of my newfound obsession with drone-psychers Flying Saucer Attack. How convenient, then, that David Pearce just announced the first FSA in fifteen years will be coming out on Drag City and Domino Records on July 17th.
You know the drill by now: If Courtney Barnett does something remotely interesting, it’s probably gonna wind up on the blog.
BTW, if you’ve never checked La Blogotheque before, I bet you could get lost over there for a few days.
Heya! Things got a little hectic last week, but I’m back! And I’ll never leave you again, baby. Promise.
Starting to panic because Mark McGuire hasn’t released anything new in, like, 2 weeks? Worry not, friend, paw paw’s new album Full Earth Greeting should hold you over just fine.
Shilpa cares not for your rockstar bullshit.
Could you fault Ducktails for biting Real Estate’s contemporary Feelies vibe? Well, sure, but since Matt Mondanile actually plays guitar for them, I think he gets a free pass.
