- For a cold October in Glasgow, you need to hear a record that sounds like the dizzy heights of a St. Tropez summer. And, you know, if the (Melbourne) band in question remind you of a grand day out, up North, where the wild catz roamed then, yes, it's so much the fucking better. Play loud! And bedroom dance! <3 - Summer Cats - 'In June'  (2.11) - Just a purrfect sound... meow . :) You can buy the long-player over  here . It is one of the best albums I own. Fact. -

You can tell it's summer in the UK because the rain gets warmer. So forget the grey skies and the persistent rain and indulge yourself in some songs to brighten your day courtesy of the Devil... Go Try Summer Camp - Ghost Train by The Drift Record Shop Summer Cats - Your Timetable by Slumberland Records Heart Safety Error - Summer Rain by Heart Safety Error Good Friends by Summer Twins 'All The Lovers I've Wronged' - The Summer Wardrobe by musicforasuperhero Sunny Summer Day - So much fun by Southeast Asia Indie Sunny Day Real Estate - Seven by subpop

It’s been a vintage year for Australian music so far (check out our critics’ mid-year report if you’re not convinced), but there’s still plenty left in the tank for the remainder of 2011. The list below is likely to fluctuate and is by no means exhaustive, so feel free to add any omissions in the comments section below. (If we’re feeling generous we might even put them up.) In the interests of symmetry, we’ve decided to include the entire month of July. July What: Future Universe by Ron S. Peno and The Superstitions. When: July ...

Eleanor Friedberger Last Summer [Merge; 2011] by Ed Comentale Rating: Eleanor Friedberger keeps it nice and breezy on her first solo album, Last Summer . Taking a step away from the top-heavy production style and high-concept drama of the Fiery Furnaces sound, she’s crafted a pretty neat and mostly gratifying summer album — a summer stoop album, to be exact. A love letter to her adopted home of Brooklyn, New York, Last Summer is full of easy guitar riffs and smooth sax solos, all "ooh"s and "aah"s and "ba-pa-pa"s: just the kind of stuff to take the heat ...

Featuring Rita Tushingham! Hi! Things are back in order and on time this month. Hopefully I will not be missing another whole month anytime soon! This month's mix is a 100% SUNNY SUMMER FUZZY JANGLE FEEDBACK FEST split almost 50/50 between old Summery favorites and brand new, soon-to-be Summer mix staples. The mix ends just as excitingly as it opens and it doesn't slow down much from point A to point B. Make sure you've got plenty of room to move around because this mix definitely requires some light dancing at the very least. LISTEN TO ...

Irene">Brave Irene est le nouveau groupe de Rose Melberg ancienne membre des Softies ou Tiger Trap, pas une nouvelle venue donc. Elle s'est installée au Canada et s'est entourée de filles pour ce mini lp de 8 titres balancés en moins de 20 minutes (le disque vinyle tourne à 45 tours). Le disque s'inscrit très bien dans le catalogue de Slumberland, si vous aimez TPOBAH, Tender Trap, les Dum Dum Girls, Summer Cats vous ne serez pas trop dépaysé par ce girl band aux influences 60s (un orgue à l'italienne bien aigrelet comme il faut ...

Golden Grrrls sont une nouvelle formation intéressante qui nous vient d'Ecosse (Glasgow précisément). Leur discographie comportement pour le moment une split cassette sur le label Suplex d'un des membres de Fair Ohs, et donc ce 45 tours (pochette sérigraphiée bien chouette) sur Night School, un nouveau label (deux sorties). Beaches la face A rappelle quelques camarades britanniques, en particulier les sus-mentionnés Fair Ohs pour cet équilibre sur le fil entre mélodies ensoleillées tropicalistes et une certaine approche punk bruitiste (mais pas trop quand même ). Les Golden Grrls y ajoutent un soupçon de pop notamment par les jolies harmonies ...

- It's true that such obvious words have been said by a few commentators over the years: the one 'Giant' that William Beveridge  rather ignored in his famous 1942 Report was cynicism. Not in the original Greek philosophical sense, of course, but, instead, some of the more contemporary interpretations of the term and how the practical manifestations of cynicism came to rule, it seems, the fucking world. You know, 'jaded negativity' and all that FUN DAY jazz. It's quite easy to see why this destructive element should have a large Acme Corporation target written on its Road Runner back ...

01. French Kissing - Oh Suzanne [Sleep All Day] A RPUT on a le sentiment qu'une nouvelle génération de groupes anglais vont faire parler d'eux ces prochains mois, les French Kissing ne sont pas les plus connus du lot, mais ils ont quand même sorti le single que l'on a préféré. Oh Suzanne est une ritournelle pop de premier ordre qui sent le sable chaud et les vacances, vivement qu'on y soit... pour se passer ce morceau. On les a interviewés ICI et on a reparlé d'eux déjà depuis ICI aussi. 02. Fair Ohs - Hey Lizzy ...

In inner-city Melbourne in the late ’70s and early ’80s, bands would form for the sole purpose of playing a few songs at a handful of gigs before disbanding. It was called the “Little Bands” scene – and it will be somewhat resurrected as part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival over consecutive Thursdays, beginning tonight (September 30). Tonight’s show will see members of local acts, including Love Connection, Rat Vs. Possum, The Bowers, Digger & The Pussycats, the Emergency, The Summer Cats, The Parking Lot Experiments, Teeth and Tongue and The Devastations, form 14 “Little Bands”, who will collaborate on 15 ...

As they enter their 19th year, Sydney’s finest slackers Smudge have never been busier, drummer Alison Galloway tells DARREN LEVIN . Smudge’s drummer Alison Galloway has a half-an-hour window before she has to pick up her daughter from childcare. The former Waterfront Records mainstay and host of MTV’s Didge Indie is peppy, congenial and has a sing-song quality to her voice that suggests she’s been spending a lot of time with a toddler. “I’ve got my three-year-old daughter at home most days, who I hang out with,” says Galloway, who also works part-time at a high ...

The rumours of Smudge’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. With an average of at least 3.75 shows a year since 2001, new songs, a bout of reissues, live appearances in four time zones across two hemispheres and a new album slated for January next year, the Sydney/Maitland slacker pop trio are admittedly “firing on all cylinders”. In support of their “best of” compilation This Smudge Is True , Smudge will hit the road in October for their first Australian tour since 1999. The tour follows their second stint in Europe, 16 years after their first. Out now through ...

Desde que el sello Cloudberry Records comenzara su andadura hace algo más de 3 años, se ha convertido en una de nuestras referencias imprescindibles, sirviéndonos para conocer esos grupitos que no suelen gozar de excesiva publicidad en los medios convencionales. Así, a lo largo de estos años han llegado a nuestros oídos bandas como Celestial, Summer Cats, Slow Down Tallahassee, Zipper, Bedroom Eyes, y tantas otras. Otro de los descubrimientos realizados gracias al sello y que todavía no había encontrado un hueco en el blog es My Laundry Life, banda alemana liderada por André Daners a la que conocimos gracias ...

Nunca consegui curtir o Crystal Fighters, mas confesso que apesar de eu ainda não curtir nem mesmo esse single ele tem algo de muito bom. Quem é fã dessa sonoridade, se liga, que o álbum deles, “Stars of Love“, sai em Setembro e essa “In the summer” você baixa aqui no site deles.
