This new song "Beliefs" won't be on the 7", but is offered by the band as a free download to their listeners. We're proud to share it with you! mp3 | Beliefs
Wow, it’s amazing to see how many fantastic indie (dream) pop records already came out this year. For instance Bloom by Beach House, Oshin by DIIV – well, this one is maybe not typical indie pop, but whatever – or most recently Wild Nothing ’s stunning Nocturne LP. It might well be that soon we can add another album to this list: Calendar by Rostov-on-Don’s Motorama , which will be released on Talitres [...]
Actually "Laika" was released late last year, together with a bunch of other great tracks on Twin Cabins debut album I'm Sure . It's just too good not to share, though. It's an intensely sunny bedroom pop song that deserves a lot more attention. You can download the entire album for a price of your choice over at Twin Cabins' bandcamp . mp3 | Laika
Already being part of the recent guerolitoplaylist 08|12 , Lucerne's indie darlings Alvin Zealot are readying their second album Flux for a 21st of September release. As their well-crafted first single "Flux" points out, the new record is drawing its inspiration from the more pyschedelic and dusty corners of indie rock. This is going to be big, believe me. The album will be out via Goldon Records . stream | Flux

Trails And Ways just finished the video for their most recent single "Mtn Tune" . It features the band rock climbing, biking in the California sun, and a dreamy concert on top of a 40-ft volcanic rock. The feel of the video is inspired by all the National Geographic nature documentaries from the late 802s that they grew up on. mp3 | Mtn Tune
Evje and Silver Firs are two of Switzerland's most forward thinking and most interesting musical projects right now. As Belia Winnewisser is part of both bands, they've decided to join forces.

Letting Up Despite Great Faults has released the first single "Visions" off their new album, Untogether, due out Oct. 9. The new track "sums up the sentiment of the the whole release," says frontman Mike Lee .

You can pre-order the album here ! already posted | Teenage Tide
