Random Album of the Day

Today’s Random Album of the Day is Self-Taught Magic From a Book from Je Suis Animal. This is Twee Pop from Norway. I love Twee Pop.

I really like this album. Twee Pop bands are typically short lived but I tend to love them so much. So I’m happy to rediscover this band which I had completely forgotten about.

Rating: 9.6

Favorite Track(s): “Secret Place” is a great starter song. Got me into the album immediately. It even gets noisy in a good way. Albeit briefly. “The Mystery of Marie Roget” continues things at a high level. “Beginning of Time”. Basically I like all the songs.

Keep or Trash: Keep.

Random Album of the Day

Today’s Random Album is Loveseat from Quarterbacks. This is Twee Pop, Cuddlecore, or Slacker Rock. And that all works for me.

This is the second album from Quarterbacks to make the album of the day. The first was a keeper so unsurprisingly this will also be a keeper. I like their Twee thing that they have going here.

My playlist for this is out of order. Oops. At least the songs have the correct titles. That’s progress.

Songs are all super short. But melodic and fun.

Favorite Track(s): “Lauren” is lovely Twee. “Schmictionary” is good. “Last Boy” sounds good but the lyrics are either super creepy or sweet. Hard to say without digging deeper. I think it’s intended to be sweet after reading lyrics haha. “Simple Songs” is fun. “Don’t Wanna” is adorable. This was out of order but I enjoyed the whole album with its short twee love stuff.

Keep or Trash: Keep.

Radio Shower Highlights Podcast - June 30, 2026 - Number 6

Welcome to the Radio Shower Weekly Highlight Podcast with Jayne. Issue #6. This episode features 1990s Twee Pop band Gaze (Canada), brand new math rock band Pancho (Britain), and singer songwriter Emma Harner (USA). Leave your comments below…

Today’s Random Album of the Day is Shake the Pounce from Gaze. This is twee pop, which is a genre I adore. At least I adore this album. Always have.

It’s basically light indie pop. Twee that is. Good catchy little ditties on this album. I could chill to this all day. I wish I knew more of the words to sing along though.

My wife and I discussed how we like the vocals. They are nice sounding but don’t come across as a traditional singing style. But they really work for me.

Trying to pinpoint why I love this so much. But head isn’t working well this morning due to 2.5 week migraine courtesy of Lyme disease. Which reminds me, sidetone: podcasts are all on delay or being skipper this week due to illness.

Favorite Track(s): So Early To Tell, From the Inside, Tea or Coffee, Nine Lives to Rigel Five, Static, and especially In The Midst

Keep or Trash: Keep. I just love this album. In fact I realized I don’t have their other album so it’ll be purchased when the money is there.
