I'm a bit torn on whether this is a good week for releases... on the one hand, it's right in my wheelhouse as far as soundtracks go ( Flight of the Conchords , latest from Barry Adamson,) but I think on the whole it's too early to tell. Other new releases this week come from Elbow , Tokyo Police Club , Chris Mills , Lyrics Born (poached in last week's post ,) Thalia Zedek Band , Billy Bragg The Night Marchers (John Reis of RFTC) , Don Cavalli [...]
Lots of great albums to sink your teeth into this week, as you've got solid releases from the likes of El Perro del Mar, Elbow, Jukebox The Ghost, The Jealous Girlfriends, and Tokyo Police Club. I'm sure i'm missing a few others, but i'm in a bit of a hurry to get this post up. If there's anything else you would like to recommend, please feel free to do so. Hopefully, next week i'll have a bit more substantial to say, instead of just a few sentences. I'm also noticing the lack of posts between [...]
The first four releases by The Replacements are being reissued this week (remastered with bonus tracks). Today through Friday, Kevin Cole will be featuring each of these albums with a giveaway on the Afternoon Show . Each day will focus on a different release, so tune in! Besides those seminal albums, there is a bevy of brilliant new releases this week for all musical tastes: Barry Adamson and Lyrics Born for the groove shakers, Amelia and Don Cavalli for the roots lovers, Monotonix and The Night Marchers for the thrashers, Elbow and The Cinematic Orchestra [...]
The day is finally here when I can share my love for the new Tokyo Police Club album Elephant Shell and everyone will be able to understand what I am talking about. I got a preview copy of the album awhile ago and I haven't been able to put it down for more than a day at a time. Quick and quirky pop would be a good description of the sound these fellows from Toronto put out and I highly recommend it. Also out this week is the national release of our very own Jukebox the [...]
A'tris er ekki endilega heppilegasta nafnið sem sú ágæta Boston-sveit sem hér um ræðir hefði geta valið sér. A'tris hljómar eins og nafn á einhverjum útvötnuðum R&B spangólara heldur en efnilegri indierokksveit. Hvort þetta verður hljómsveitinni til trafala á eftir að koma í ljós en tónlisitin er góð, því verður ekki neitað. Aðdáendur Radiohead og Muse ættu að leggja við hlustir.

Slumberland Records will release Sarandon 's provocatively titled (particularly given the label's reputation!) "Kill Twee Pop!" on April 22, 2008. The label say that the record is ostentatious, witty, and spastic, packed with wit and ideas while still remaining as catchy (catchier, actually) as much of the twee pop it means to destroy. They've also made a fab MP3 available to download: Sarandon - " Mike's Dollar " A full review of the LP will follow in due course and if the sneak preview I have heard is [...]

I've had Sarandon 's new 7" single on the record player for more than a few weeks now, but I consistently forgotten to mention it here. Better late than never, I say. Joe's Record is three excellent tracks of erratic, jangling post-punk no doubt inspired by roughly half of that one tape some magazine released back in 1986. Not surprising though, as the band's fronted by xQPwRtz 's Crayola and now they've even got Alan Brown of bIG fLAME playing bass. The Joe's Record 7" is out now on [...]
Bob Mould: District Line / Circle of Friends First, the big news... A new full length solo release from former Husker Du / Sugar front man and guitarist Bob Mould is set to be titled District Line. It will be released through Anti- on February 5th and promises an ending track that was originally cut from Bob's debut 1989 solo release Workbook. For the most updated
Sarandon have a new 7" single out on Slumberland Records . It's titled Joe's Record and contains three tracks. The release itself is limited to 600 copies and comes on pink 7" vinyl. Sarandon are inspired by C86 but the nosier rather the jangle pop side of things. Think Wolfhounds, A Witness, Ron Johnson Records and Big Flame and you are a halfway there. Their live show is also exceptional. Essential stuff for the indie pop fan. Sarandon - The Linguist Sarandon are currently recording an album [...]

My documented love affair with Slumberland Records continues with Sarandon, the South London pop, post-pop, post-punk noise outfit and not the American actress. Led by sole remaining founding member Crayola, Sarandon are irrepressibly catchy with slightly bizarre lyrics. They're simple and possibly quite mad, to use the British meaning of the word, which explains why my seven year old says "The Linguist" makes her feel like wiggling. www.slumberlandrecords.com www.sarandon.net
Sarandon has a brand new single out on Slumberland Records . The single is called "Joe's Record" and here's one of the B-sides, "The Linguist", for you: Sarandon - The Linguist (from the label ) Crayola , the frontman in Sarandon, has an interesting blog where he tells about indie-life in the UK in the eighties. Highly recommended for fans of twee/c86/80s UK indie. The Slumberland label is also the home of The Lodger , a band [...]
