GoldFlakePaint One of my favourite non-Scottish blogs, GoldFlakePaint celebrated their second birthday last week. To mark the occasion they have compiled a cracking wee compilation album featuring some of their favourite artists.

You may have missed our ' official ' albums-of-the-year list over the Christmas period, if you did so then head here now to check them out. Unfortunately I'm far too unorganised to sort out any kind of voting system, so I took sole responsibility for both the albums and singles list. However I felt that it would only be right to include some end-of-year coverage from all our wonderful writers so I asked them to compile their own personal Top 5 albums of the year. Here are the results... Tomas [...]
It's only a few days until Christmas now and GoldFlakePaint finds itself still going strong at the end of this, it's first ever full year on't web. And what a year it's been. We put on our first ever gigs, recruited some mighty fine new writers, got a swanky new face-lift and met a few of our heroes along the way. Thanks to anyone who is taking the time to read this now and for anyone who has been with us on the journey, it's been great fun and we're all looking forward to whatever 2012 might throw our way.

Get used to it. Welcome to the GFP Stream Room... Neon Indian - Fallout First song to be released from Neon Indian' s upcoming Era Erana LP is pretty darn lovely. Alan Palomo recorded much of the album holed-up in Helsinki apparently...that's the only fact [...]
We get sent so much great music to us here at GFP HQ and we've always been frustrated that we don't have time to cover more of the wonderful songs/albums/bands we get sent on a daily basis. In an attempt to counter this annoying fact, we've devised this simple and terribly-named new feature. In short, each week we will post up streams of a few of our favourite new songs that have surfaced over those seven days. Sound good? Cool. So let's begin. Kick off your shoes, put your feet up and [...]
