Flotation Toy Warning From: London, United Kingdom Flotation Toy Warning are not a new band, they formed 10 years ago in London but have never received the credit their music deserves. It's hard to understand why they're absorbing brand of pop has never really caught on. Maybe it's because they were tagged as a chamber pop band, one of the most meaningless genres ever created. Or [...]

Paul, comment avez-vous travaillé ces cinq dernière années ? Paul Carter : En fait, on n'a rien fait l'essentiel du temps. Je veux dire : pas en tant que Flotation Toy Warning. A la fin du process du dernier album, on avait tout simplement perdu le plaisir de travailler ensemble. Nous sommes par nature hyper-pointilleux, hyper-soignés, cela rend le processus très lent. Les gens savent que nous sommes des musiciens capables de passer quinze jours sur deux mesures, et vraiment, ce n'est pas bon pour la santé. On devrait penser à davantage s'aérer parfois... Je pense [...]
These two songs deliver the expansive psych-pop from the band's debut and set some high expectations for the second record. It's been a long time since 2004's The Bluffer's Guide to the Flight Deck, the excellent debut from London's Flotation Toy Warning. Now, this two-song single serves as a primer for their upcoming second record, The Machine That Made Us, and for any fans of the first record, this is a welcome return. These two songs deliver the same expansive, moody psych-pop and maintain the band's indescribably weird aesthetic -- steady percussion warped by haunting...
The musical year of 2010 could very well be like the year 2012, that is if John Cusack cuts a record with a multi-million dollar budget leaving critical audiences with a collective "Oy" escaping their lips. However, what 2010 lacks in apocalyptic CGI effects it more than makes up for in fantastic music releases. Perhaps an LP not as anticipated as the LCD Soundsystem's and The New Pornographer's of the world, but exciting (to me) nonetheless. London's Flotation Toy Warning released their debut LP Bluffer's Guide To The [...]

Hace unos días escribía un post sobre Great Lake Swimmers en el que empezaba diciendo que son unas cuantas las bandas interesantes que aglutina el sello Misra Records , entre otras citaba a Flotation Toy Warning a la que hoy nos vamos a referir. El grupo se forma en Londres en el año 2001, siendo sus miembros Paul Carter (voz), Ben Clay (guitarra, bajo), Colin Coxall (batería), Nainesh Shah (guitarra, bajo) y Vicky West (teclados). Su debut discográfico se produce en el año 2002, con la publicación de dos eps en el sello londinense [...]

Meine kleine, unregelmäßige Serie über die Indielabels dieser Welt führt mich diesmal nach Kalifornien, zu Misra Records . Dieses geschmacks- und stilsichere Label hat sich vor allem auf sog. IndieFolk, auch Indierock und -pop, spezialisiert und bietet auf seiner Website Dutzende von kostenlosen Songs an (was ja eine Voraussetzung dafür ist, bei mir hier genannt zu werden). Misra beheimatet Künstler wie Dan Bejars Destroyer (die mittlerweile in der Bloglandschaft durchaus einen gewissen Bekanntheitsgrad erreicht haben), auch die melancholischen Great Lake Swimmers oder die beschwingten, [...]

Call it serendipity if you must. Today marks the 250th post here at ThaBombShelter, and it also marks the sort of post I feel almost compelled to share with you. This story actually starts at least a month ago. The GF and I were at Barnes and Noble, just browsing around, and I was checking out the music thingee to see who it would recommend that was similar to Neutral Milk Hotel. I'm a big fan of "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" (who isn't?!), but I just can't get into much of their other work. [...]

Kuzey kutbunda esrarengiz bir takım araştırmalar yapan kaşif ve tarihçilerden oluşuyor Flotation Toy Warning . İşte kendilerine ait 1820 tarihli bir fotoğraf. İnanmıyorsanız grubun sesi Paul Carter'a sorun. Carter odanıza misafir olduğu andan itibaren hikayesini incelikle anlatmaya başlıyor. Hemen başında "Please leave all the shiny objects behind" diye ricasını da dile getirdikten sonra sahne bulanıklaşıyor. Bluffer's Guide To The Flight Deck grubun debut çalışması ve 2005 yılına ait. Flaming Lips, Neutral Milk Hotel, Sparklehorse çalışmalarını andıran dream pop etkenleri bayağı önde genel olarak. Parçalardaki algının dışında kalan duygusallık, detaylı işlenmiş enstrümantasyon, derinden gelen sizle konuşan bir vokal, [...]
For nearly 15 years residents of Androscoggi n County in Maine have lived in fear of a mysterious creature that lurks in the night. An evil beast with glow-in-the-dark eyes and the most terrible stench you have ever smelled.  On Saturday this ravenous mutant, who in recent years has been tied to the death of a Doberman pinscher and a Rottweiler, was ran straight over by a car in an attempt to chase down a cat. Here are the pictures.  http://www. fox news.com/story/0,2933,208683,0 0.html [...]
