I thought I would provide a condensed round up of some bands who have e-mailed me or I have come across over the past month or two. I would have liked to have expanded on the artists (and I may well do in the future) but this is all time permits these days. And something is better than nothing. Let's get the ball rolling!
The Second Band - Wild Is The Wind. A different take on the Swedish indie pop scene. taken from their forthcoming release Your Darkside Is On The Phone.
Oppenheimer - Quirky Irish indie-pop from Belfast with plenty of surprises. Three tracks for streaming at their My Space page with Breakfast In NYC being my fave! I hope to get my hands on some of their stuff so I can review in greater detail!
More from My Space in the shape of All My Friends who are currently a home recording project but on the strength of their songs it shouldn't be to long before they are out and about. There are four songs to stream or download and I can best describe the music as 60's inspired indie-pop. Which is no bad thing in my book as these two tracks testify:
All My Friends - Sleepin' In Rough
All My Friends - Fraught & Frantic
The Hair are a band hailing from York. I listened to a couple of their tracks and they have plenty of ideas up their sleeves as well as energy and enthusiasm. They remind me a lot of stuff around in the early 1990's as well as bands around today such as Franz Ferdinand or Kasabian. They also seem to be having alot of fun which is what it is all about in the end.
The Hair - Bunny Boiler
The Hair - Hooker
They also have their a My Space page.
I wrote about Liger in October 2005. They now have a new release which is a split one with A Thousand Fuegos (Beat Is Murder netlabel). This may be an acquired taste for some but if you persevere with ityou may find something that pleases you.
Liger - Abortion 2
A Thousand Fuegos - When The River Ran Dry
