Hey Anna: Pompette EP - Hey Anna is a band made up of Anna, Katie and Erin Rauch-Sassen on vocals, Matthew Langner on drums and Andrew Smolin on guitar. Katie plays bass and Anna and Erin do keyboards and synths sometimes, too. The band has been putting out music since their first single, ‘Blackout’ in July 2012. Their self-titled EP was released last September and now we have the Pompette EP this spring. So, creation isn’t the problem. In fact, there isn’t a problem at all. As the cover art for [...]
Arcane Roots Blood & Chemistry PIAS Recordings 06 May 2013 by Gavin Lloyd Ever since Arcane Roots started seeping into people's consciousness, there has been one comparison that has repeatedly been brought up. A little band who have recently scored a number one album and completed a sold-out arena tour of the country by the name of Biffy [...]
Truth be known, stadium-embracing Glaswegian alt.pop leviathans Texas are a band I never thought would be featuring amidst the dotted i's and dashed t's of these here intangible pages – I never even so much as envisaged it happening. And yet here we are, at the irrefutable right end of the Scots' six year hiatus, extolling the unending virtues of a certain Sharleen Spiteri & co. I mean it's hard to refute the genius of, say, Say What You Want in the same way that the Summer Son to have frazzled Spiteri's skin once upon a when [...]
There once was "an Englishman with a very high voice, doing rock'n'roll." He hailed from Lowestoft in the kingdom's easternmost reaches, and derived his craft from hairy fretboard fiddlers whose luscious manes would be showered with the radiant spotlights of stadia nightly. He would climb into clinging catsuits which hugged his svelte figure as a steely panther might its prey. A genuine eccentric topped off with a tennis visor, his wife would be his manager and his brother his subdued foil forever cling filmed in a Thin Lizzy tee. They stole a summer – that of 2003 – before their [...]

"The Bazaars - childhood friends Jonny Woolnough, Tom McGeorge, Jonny Pugh and Paul Brown released their debut single 'I Want You Dead' soon after performing their first gig in their native Leeds. The single instantly received widespread radio play including Radio 1/MTV2 etc with the band spending much of its first incarnation together touring the UK extensively, supporting the likes of other notable Leeds based bands including Embrace, Kaiser Chiefs and The Blueskins. The band began recording their debut album in the Summer of 2010, spending 2 years on and off perfecting their work, recording and re-recording the album in RAK Studios with Richard Woodcraft at the helm (Radiohead, Last Shadow Puppets, Neil Young among many others)".

This compilation, being handled by Shelflife here in the US and Seksound pretty much everywhere else, is actually pretty handy...at least for myself. Despite listening to a great amount of shoegaze/dream-pop over the years, Pia Fraus is a band that I've never spent much time with. I'm pretty sure I've heard an album...maybe a bit more...but for whatever reason it didn't stick with me at the time. This comp that spans the years of 1998 through 2008, titled Silmi Island , has unquestionably corrected that. Maybe the only band that I've heard of [...]
Here's a free download released to celebrate PIAS Recordings 30th anniversary. It's a remix of Tiga's Shoes from a few years back. The one with the treated vocal that makes Tiga sound like Madonna. The original is arch, quirky, witty and critically the wife loved it. This version is a bit more minimal and lacks the lushness of the original. But the lyrics still raise a smile. Blurb: For more rare and exclusive content from some of the labels’ artists past and present head to www.piasrecordings.com Tiga's new single 'Plush' taken from mix LP, 'Non Stop' is out [...]

Como he mencionado en anteriores ocasiones , me declaro completa y absoluta fan de Race Horses . Hace un par de meses platicamos con Dylan, guitarrista de la banda, y les compartimos el 13 que obtuvimos como resultado. Ahora nos mandaron un playlist que resume en 14 canciones lo que Race Horses disfruta de otras agrupaciones, pasando desde Velvet Underground y Dexy's Midnight Runners hasta Os Mutantes y Abba. El playlist es muy acogedor, así que seguramente lo van a disfrutar. El nuevo disco de Race Horses se llama Furniture y ya está a [...]

Tiga ‘Plush’ – the new single, out December 17th Taken from mix LP ‘Tiga Non Stop’, out now!
