If you're a Los Campesinos ! fan, I've got some pretty great news for your Friday. The UK-based indie pop band is releasing their very first live album, which will be available for digital download on May 4th. A Good Night For A Fistfight was recorded last December at Islington Assembly Hall in London, where the band played a 21-song set spanning all of their albums. The show was particularly noteworthy because it marked the last show with band member Ellen Campesinos!, as well as the appearance of Aleks Campesinos! playing her first [...]

>> Cardiff-based indie pop heroes Los Campesinos delivered in a big way today on a surprise they've been teasing for a couple weeks. The news is the sextet is releasing a new live set titled It's A Good Night For A Fist Fight , and based on the preview track, a cracking version of "We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed," it would seem the record is going to be a fireball. It's A Good Night For A Fist Fight was recorded live at Islington Assembly Hall in London on December 15th of last [...]

Last December I had the pleasure of attending Los Campesinos' Christmas gig at Islington Assembly Hall. They had mentioned on the night that the performance was being recorded for possible release as a live album, but seeing as we'd heard nothing about it for months I thought that idea had fallen by the wayside, which would have been a shame since the night was special for a number of reasons; the time of year, it was the end of their touring for Hello Sadness , it was bassist and founding member Ellen's last gig, former founding [...]

Frode & Marcus I get why people have such affection for Shout Out Louds' 2005 debut Howl Howl Gaff Gaff ; the way it tapped into the scrappy, garage-rock sound in vogue at the time but rather than the insouciant attitude that typically came with the aesthetic, it offered a wide-eyed and sincere charm and stood apart from the pack for it. That said, it was only with 20072s Our Ill Wills , which polished up their pop and expanded it to widescreen dimensions, that I [...]

If there’s any proof that indie isn’t dead in this modern age, it’s the fact that Boats are still around. If you’re not familiar with their work, these guys are a Canadian indie rock band from Winnipeg, specializing in light-hearted pop extravaganzas that incorporate just about every single instrument under the sun. Their first album, Intercontinental Champion , was released in 2007, and they've been making their wry blend of twee pop and noisy rock ever since. When it comes to this band, a lot of their lyrics feel like they [...]

I was meant to do the blog post earlier in the week but I’ve been busy, stop giving me a hard time, man. These are the best requests that I received last weekend during my DJ escapades. First one is a golden oldie, shouted out by rampant sexlord Matthew Beattie . I’ll not embarrass Matt by revealing how long ago he first requested this track, but let’s just say it was a wee while back. It’s still a brilliant tune, think I’ll make it a staple of my sets from now on. [...]

Portland experimental pop band Parenthetical Girls have compiled their five Privilige EPs into one full-length collection, conveniently-titled Privilege (Abridged). While each of the 12 tracks have all been previously released, their former tour mates (and fellow Christmas aficionados ) Los Campesinos! offer something new with a remix of "Sympathy For Spastics" . The original tune was built on little more than a sparse classical piano and Zac Pennington's theatrical vocals, both of which profoundly hint at underlying depths of raw heartache. [...]
