After quite an exciting year 2012 indie-pop newcomers YES CADETS have deserved a little break it seems. The past twelve months have been a wilde ride for the trio from Belfast. Alan, Lisa and Steve released their latest EP Le Mans via German label Hummig Records and toured extensively throughout the past months. As a

Fyfe Dangerfield completely captures the meaning of a passionate artist. With one of the most natural and gorgeous voices, he fronts the genius band The Guillemots along with showcasing his talents in recent solo album Fly Yellow Moon . So whist on a train, Fyfe graciously took the time to answer some questions with AMBY on his incredible solo album, The Guillemots and more! AMBY: Your solo album Fly Yellow Moon is excellent! What did it allow you to do that you may not have done if it was a Guillemots record? [...]

Words by David Rutherford An album's merit doesn't just derive from its content, but also from its context. I'm not saying it's 50:50, or that good albums can't be timeless; just that the surroundings - musical, social, political, whatever - matter. This might explain charitably why I listen to Paul Simon's Graceland  and still love it, while Duran Duran's Rio  makes me want to vomit Blue Nun over my white suit. Context, of course, can be both a public or a personal matter. Even very personal experiences can have a universal aspect: [...]

Talk Talk's final two albums, Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock , respectively, are two of my favorite records, but they were Talk Talk's least commercially successful because the band utterly ignored its synth-pop, new wave roots (and its audience) to embark an an experimental tangent that has influenced a generation of songwriters. Ex-Depeche Mode keyboardist Alan Wilder has compiled a tribute album to a band he says "experienced a career in reverse." He continues, "There was a direct correlation between the quality increase and the popularity decrease." Talk Talk stormed onto the charts with [...]

We like Guillemots [ Twitter / Facebook ]. A lot. Do you feel the same? If so, you're probably aware that the band released an album two months back called Hello Land!. You're probably also aware of the fact that it is the first of four (!) albums the band have planned for release this year. As well as using this post to highlight the fact that the band reckon the second of these albums (the summer-themed one) will be out next month, we're also going to let you guys have a free download of  Fleet , just because [...]

There's exciting news from Guillemots. First, there's apparently more albums beyond 'Hello Land!' to be released this year. Fyfe Dangerfield suspects the next album will be released in August. (But just in case like me you don't have the album yet, you can grab the track 'Fleet' from the album for free in the widget below.) Second, the band wanted to share with everyone a version of 'Fleet' recorded live at Positive Blackout at London Village Underground. Third, Dangerfield will be doing some sort of Twitter chat in the [...]

Guillemots are giving away a free download of their stunning album track 'Fleet'. The track is taken from the Guillemots' most recent album Hello Land! , which is the first of four albums to be released this year by the band! Previously: Guillemots - Hello Land! (Album Stream)

In an exclusive interview with Absolute Radio’s Pete Mitchell, Fyfe Dangerfield of The Guillemots has revealed a desire to see more of the obscure in the music industry…in the form of a dancing tiger. Following the band’s gig at Hard Rock Cafe Manchester, the front man said that it would be nice to ‘walk down the street and see a tiger dancing’ ; a metaphor Dangerfield used to illustrate his wish to see more individual and creative music. His comments followed discussions with Pete over the band’s planned quadruple album [...]

The Scottish Festival takes place June 8-10...

Winner the Grass Roots Festival award at 20102s UK Festival Awards, 2000 Trees (12-14 July) has quickly become a staple part of the boutique festival scene. Since its early beginnings in 2007 with just a 1000-person capacity, this year 4500 people will don their wellies and head on down to Upcote Farm, Gloucestershire. And what a line-up they have to offer. Headlining the two-day extravaganza are the post-rock favourites 65DaysOfStatic   and Brummy indie cohorts Guillemots (pictured at top). But it's [...]

O Guillemots decepcionou, mesmo que em pequena escala, ao lançar o fraco Walk the river em 2011. Mas para compensar esse lançamento esquecível para os fãs, Fyfe Dangerfield e cia. retornam em 2012 com não um - mas QUATRO - novos álbuns. O primeiro, vejam só, já está disponível na íntegra para audição e tem o sugestivo e lúdico nome de Hello Land! , espírito que se replica na capa do álbum. Hello Land! é uma viagem paciente e mágica pelo dream pop, e mostra talvez o [...]

vier alben in einem jahr veröffentlichen zu wollen ist ein kühnes unterfangen. guillemots aus england haben aber genau dies vor und starten gerade ...

Se llama Hello Land! y Guillemots decidió publicarlo ayer en SoundCloud entretenerse demasiado en promocionarlo. Pero para eso estamos aquí nosotros, para que todos tengamos la oportunidad de escuchar lo nuevo de esta banda de rock independiente inglesa.

Leyendo el citado comunicado [...]

• Guillemots - Hello Land!

Guillemots' new album Hello Land sparked this new gem. I feel like I haven't done a great job keeping track of them after their EP From the Cliffs, but I can't ignore them again after hearing this song. Hello Land is the first of four albums Guillemots will be releasing this year. Guillemots: "Fleet"

Buy Hello Moon! here and read Guillemots' reasons for the release - and the forthcoming three - after the jump. It sounds like the band had gotten a little bored of the 'traditional cycle...

Sin preámbulos y de manera totalmente sorprendente, Guillemots publicó ayer Hello Land! , el primero de una serie de cuatro discos que planean editar a lo largo del año. El disco se compone de 8 temas que ya pueden escucharse online. El grupo realizó el anuncio ayer tanto en Twitter como en Facebook con una carta de puña y letra de su líder Fyfe Dangerfield , aunque firmada [...]
