Ocean City Defender – The Golden Hour EP (2012)

Feb 21, 2012, 4:51am Escafandrista Musical (by DJ Golden)
Ocean City Defender – The Golden Hour EP (2012) Género: Synth pop, dream. K. Preston Merkley es el canadiense que maneja Ocean City Defender , un nuevo guiño a los sintetizadores para este 2012 recibido vía Mr. Monami. Acaba de poner a nuestra disposición un EP titulado The Golden Hour , y una vez escuchado puedo deciros que los cinco cortes mantienen el tipo, y si M83 te pone tontorrón, Preston también podría hacerlo. Bueno, con matices, ya que no es lo mismo, el shoegaze sonoro no se aprecia apenas y su propuesta se orienta [...]

Review: Sporting Life, Singles [2011]

Feb 1, 2012, 9:42pm Given and Taken in Ink
Review: Sporting Life, Singles [2011] San Francisco-based Sporting Life released its debut album, Singles , back in September 2011.  Barely a year old, the band already sounds like it has been in existence for much longer.  Singles combines the aesthetic of 1990s American indie rock with the confident attitude of mid-2000s Brit rock.  A song like "Parking Lots" has elements of the raw energy of British punk, while the vocals on "Immigrant" recall James Mercer of the Shins.  With fuzzy guitars, driving percussion, and melodic hooks, this is a can't-miss collection of songs.

SPORTING LIFE – Singles (2011)

Dec 20, 2011, 2:16pm Le Choix de Mlle Eddie
Eh bien le voilà le gros coup de cœur du type « nom d’une pipe en bois d’où est-ce qu’il sort ce groupe avec ce single que je m’écoute en boucle depuis 2 semaines » ? Il a eu du mal à venir, mais le voilà, il s’appelle Sporting Life . C’est un quatuor de San Francisco qui fait de l’indie-rock sous influence eighties et sixties, autant vous dire que ça s’écoute aussi facilement que j’ingurgite des toasts au foie gras le 24 décembre au soir.

Album Review: Skint and Demoralised – This Sporting Life

Jul 21, 2011, 7:00am There Goes the Fear
Album Review: Skint and Demoralised – This Sporting Life It’s taken over a year but Skint and Demoralised has finally released their debut album. Er, a debut album, and then their second album. Which is actually more their debut, since it’s their first true long-playing release and this is what got them signed to Heist or Hit. But a full album’s worth of material was already ready, so now there are two albums running around. Confused? Let me set the stage… In the latter part of 2008, Steve Lamacq named ‘The Thrill of Thirty Seconds’ by [...]
