This week is, of course, the week of Record Store Day where we hopefully remember that record shops are nice places to spend time and money and resolve to go there more often, rather than just fight for the exclusive scraps scattered like breadcrumbs for pigeons. Understandably, most of the gig action this week is focussed on that very event, and naturally I am going to tell you that *cough cough* our stuff is by far the most awesome. It is though. We have the Beer vs. Records launch at Summerhall on [...]

By Matt Jones and Tom Fake April 09, 2013 ‘Cardiff doesn’t really have any indie music festivals’, one of Wales Goes Pop! ’s organisers explains. It’s true - rock, punk and ska-punk scenes dominate the capital, whilst the indie gigs have a much smaller sphere of influence. Wales Goes Pop! is a direct response to this. The result of two passionate musicians using their own free time (outside of working for local venues) and hard-earned cash, it is an attempt to provide Cardiff with the indiepop fix it has been [...]

Gli inglesi The Wave Pictures omaggiano Jason Molina con un intero disco di cover dal titlo "The Songs Of Jason Molina": the Songs of Jason Molina by the Wave Pictures ALBUM STREAM: The Wave Pictures - The Songs Of Jason Molina pubblicato su Indie For BUNNIES

All money will go to towards Jason’s medical fund as a memorial gift "I first heard Songs: Ohia in Paris several years ago, when I was recording ‘’Streets of Philadelphia’’ with Andre Herman Dune (Stanley Brinks, as he likes to be called these days) and he put a cd on the player. I was nonplussed, but Andre was insistent that I listen more closely. There was something insistent in the music itself, too: something non-ironic, something soulful in the voice of the singer. I took a cd home with me, back to [...]

So the waiting is over, and here are the first twenty entries in our Top 100 of 2012, part of MM's much expanded Best of the Year review. Over the next five days we will reveal our favourite songs and those of our contributors: Mrs Mackerel, Christy Popper, Barry-Sean, Dr Roddy, Polly Pocket, Middle Sprat, Starbie, and Toy Steve. These are not the most "popular" songs of the year, nor do they lay any subjective claim to being the "best", but they are without doubt the favourites of all those who have written for MM one way or another this [...]
WYMESWOLD band The Wave Pictures' album Long Black Cars is the last LP to park itself in the Albums of the Year 2012 lot. The group sees a slightlier rockier sound driving the ramshackle indie pop which fans of the band know and love. And atop this, as always, sits David Tattershall's trademark vocals and perceptive, poetic, bathetic wordplay. It's the sound of a band deciding not to reinvent it's wheel, just to run it that little bit faster and smoother than ever before. If it gets your vote, click on the poll below - and [...]

Ce dimanche sera diffusée sur la vénérable radio 666 une émission d'une heure avec Xavier de Tahiti 80 . Le concept: Xavier a choisi dans la discothèque de votre serviteur des disques dont les pochettes étaient ornées (61) d'un ou plusieurs mammifères. J »aimerais dire 1) que je suis à l'origine du concept mais nan, c'est lui et 2) que j'en ai aussi choisi un ou deux, dont un titre du grandiose Fosbury de Tahiti 80. [...]

Bon, ben hier soir, y avait la Sunday britpop d' Up The Baguette . J'avais écrit des tas de lignes super drôles et spirituelles pour raconter la soirée d'hier mais le site a planté et tout est parti... J'avais notamment évoqué une reprise acapaella (=sans musique et quasi en espagnol) de Don't look back in anger en fin de soirée qui fut de toute beauté... J'avais aussi raconté qu'après un warm up sixties de Sacha Distil, Mr Shankly & I avions ping-pongué [...]
EARLIER today, Sound Advice revealed the Albums of the Year for 2012. As you might expect, it's a mixed bag - with award winning efforts such as Alt-J's An Awesome Wave rubbing shoulders with the lesser-known likes of Clean George IV. So to make sure you're all fully versed in this year's selection, here's a playlist below to listen to before you place your vote even further below. Which is the top Album of the Year 2012
IN THE festive run-up to the end of the year, it's a time for tradition - and it's traditional for me to site down with some headphones and a pad of paper and beat myself up royally about which 10 albums from the year I like best. Here's this year's selection - if you don't know them, I strongly suggest you get acquainted, I'll be posting up a playlist later today, and please take a second to vote for your favourite below. I'll be explaining a bit more about each selection individually over the coming weeks, and I'd [...]

I could have sworn I've posted The Wave Pictures before, but the search function tells me that this is not true! This should probably not be too surprising for me, but oh well. They are a British lo-fi rock band that I have yet to get sick of, which is generally a feat in itself. This song in particular has a chorus that talks about the various physical qualities of marmalade, or something. As I love marmalade, this is quite the bonus! But it's a great song by a great band and I'm sure they will be on here later [...]

THE WAVE PICTURES Long Black Cars (Moshi Moshi, 2012) par Eddie Les Wave Pictures, c’est une valeur sûre. Je vous l’avais dit l’année dernière quand est sorti Beer in the Breakers, et je vous le redis aujourd’hui. Et je vous le redirai probablement l’année prochaine lorsqu’ils sortiront leur huitième album. La bande de David Tattersall [...]

The Wave Pictures eröffnen die erste Auslandstaffel von LofiDogma. Vier weitere Bands haben sich in London ebenfalls den Regeln des Zürcher Dogmas unterworfen. Am Anfang war das Dogma. Seit 2007 haben 45 Bands einen Song im vom LofiDogma vorgeschriebenen Produktionsverfahren eingespielt. Die Stücke, die ohne Overdubs und anderen produktionstechnischen Schnickschnack aufgenommen wurden und mittlerweile auch auf itunes erhältlich sind, bieten einen repräsentativen Querschnitt durch die Schweizer Musikszene. Nun wagt man sich ans Ausland. Das Zürcher Produzententeam meldet sich mit fünf neuen Songs aus London [...]
