Kweller will be utilizing the talents of Brighton's underground heroes, The Electric Soft Parade , as his backing band.

The Pure Conjecture - Courgettes By Kenny McMurtrie Boasting amongst their ranks members of such groups as British Sea Power, Brakes, Electric Soft Parade and The Hazey Janes to name but a few, The Pure Conjecture is a supergroup wherein the individuals’ names probably mean less to the average punter than do those of their usual outfits. What though is in a name? The sounds they’re producing are the thing and a well put together one at that. The aforementioned sound on [...]
FADED GLAMOUR
The Electric Soft Parade live at The Haunt, Brighton (4 Feb '12) // Words: Simon Opie There’s something in the now customary live event of playing a classic album in its entirety. I’ve seen a few such gigs and they’ve always been good. But I can honestly say that this was a gig I’ll never forget. It was essentially to celebrate [...]

British Sea Power, by Kenny McMurtrie By Kenny McMurtrie October 30, 2011 Rarely do you see a merchandise stall featuring a memoir of the headline act and the family of a couple of its members but, if you’re to come across that anywhere, then a British Sea Power show is probably one of the less surprising places to encounter the like. Alongside the more run of the mill CDs and t-shirts, Ray Wilkinson’s (ex-manager, brother of Yan & Hamilton) work Do It For Your Mum [...]

Seven Staropramens had seared an untimely hole in my wallet on a balmy October evening. Earlier that night, I'd felt for the first time the heart-pumping euphoria where live music and alcohol criss-cross and interlock on the shores of intoxication island. I was meant to be back within the hour to help out with the party. It was for charity. Charity had been hurled out the window though, I needed more. I needed something. I needed. A kebab. [...]

Never Enough Notes Never Enough Notes
Previewing second solo album, The Maximalist, Thomas White returns with his familiar style of pop-with-a-snarl. There’s a fine art to making music that’s subtly aggressive, and the White brothers have always managed to carry it off quite well, the early charm of Electric Soft Parade and more recently as members of Brakes being particularly good examples. The Last Blast, “a dissection of the life and work of notorious World War II novelist Sven Hassel” (an interesting story by the way), is as suitably manic as its title and [...]
The Dumbing of America
Compiling a list of this magnitude is a daunting task, so we're going to start with a disclaimer. This is "our" favorite albums of the decade and we make no claims that this is the defining, music snob list that you should bow before as you read it. While we shunned the concept initially, we've been disappointed to see a lot of our favorite albums being ignored by the likes of Pitchfork and others. Obviously, there will some overlap (how many Radiohead albums does your list have?), but in general we think this list gives you a [...]

Jeremy from Fingertips joins us each month as he scours the betterPropaganda archives, highlighting gems buried a few years back in our database. This week we bring you "If That's the Case, Then I Don't Know" from The Electric Soft Parade . At once squonky and lithe, "If That's the Case, Then I Don't Know" features anthemic chords and resounding beats, scuffed up fetchingly with fuzzy guitars and electronic blips and boops. Add Alex White's nicely vulnerable, Brit-poppy vocals and the whole manages to trump the sum of its parts--quite an accomplishment, [...]

image from here Well, it has been awhile that is for sure. Almost forgot how to run this thing.... Don't want to clutter this space with my personal crap but suffice it to say I am lucky to be alive. Suicide attempts are not pleasant things to talk about. Unfortunately, I am still suffering from severe depression, among other things and struggle to make it through each day. Well, enough about that already. This is supposed to be about the music. And I must admit I am on a [...]

Licorice Pizza
As usual well past due, here’s the latest (and not-so-latest) from the Licorice Pizza mailbox. There’s a pretty good selection of stuff here; something for everyone’s palate, I think. My personal pick of the litter is the tune from Brooklyn’s TK Webb & the Visions, “Teen is Still Shaking.” This is a spacey metal song with Dylan-esque vocals. My vote for weirdest song is Lexicon’s hip-hop take on the Ramones “I Wanna Be Sedated.” And winning the honor for “Singer I’d Most Like to Leave Everything For” is Kirsten Price. Like always, follow the [...]
