Is the romantic sentiment still filtering through to this week's shortlist...In a word... No... So who has made the list for this week I hear you cry? Well cry no more and read on...

A Brief History of Love

Feb 9, 2010, 4:11pm

Covert Curiosity

The Big Pink first caught my attention with their single "Velvet," a dreamy collage of industrial beats amidst a droning guitar shred. I played it over and over and over until I got my hands on the debut album A Brief History of Love, which became an automatic favorite. While being more reminiscent of Jesus and the Mary Chain, the band took its name from country soul rockers The Band's debut album Music from Big Pink. The duo consists of multi-instrumentalists Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell. The band's debut album, A [...]

Someones In The Wolf

This is a two part post. PART 1 First off, as a few of my close friends and family will know, October is an annually difficult month for me, a lot of shit has happened in this particular month over recent years, say maybe from 2003 onwards. None more so than last October (2008) which was probably the hardest yet. I'm not going to go into details as this isn't a therapy session afterall but those in the know will understand what i mean. It just seems to be a difficult 31 days in general. [...]

The Big Pink: A History of Love (Reviews)

Oct 14, 2009, 2:00am

PopMatters

UK duo gets fuzzy and epic on their debut tribute to '90s shoegaze. Everything about the Big Pink screams imitation. From the name -- a reference to the seminal debut album by Canadian rockers the Band (no, its not a coincidence check the name of their website) -- to the cover art (The Pixies' Surfer Rosa, maybe?), to their psychedelic-shoegaze sound, everything is in someway a rather obvious gesture to some renowned rock act or album of the past. This isn't an erroneous decision, necessarily. After all, it's...

A Good Day For Airplay

Editors - "Papillon" Many dudes running their asses off all around Los Angeles at night. This very synth heavy (sounding like early 80's Depeche Mode) first single is from their third album titled "In This Light and On This Evening" coming out October 13th. We Were Promised Jetpacks - "Quiet Little Voices" A nice performance video from these 4 Scottish lads [...]

I absolutely love The Big Pink, and while it's not going to be able to knock Ben Klock's One out of the #1 slot for my favorite album of 2009, it's definitely aiming for the top five. They've finally released A Brief History Of Love and Pitchfork not only gave it an 8.2 rating, but it's a well-crafted review. I love the production and brooding ambiance on the record, and am thrilled that they are

Band of the Week: The Big Pink

Aug 27, 2009, 10:23pm

Spinner.com

Filed under: UK , Band of the Week The Big Pink's mission may just be to confuse us from the word go. When you name your band after the title of a record by Bob Dylan 's fellow travellers the Band, visions of pastoral, woozy folk-rock are only to be expected. The problem is, this is a very, very long way from what the Big Pink do. Comprised of Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell, the Big Pink's music looks not so much to 'The Basement Tapes' as [...]

Congratulations, Cigi, you are very late again jumping on the bandwagon. Jesus, I don't know if I'm getting old or just not paying enough attention anymore or whatever but I just can't wrap my head around the way The Big Pink went by me unnoticed. They had a fucking Gang Gang Dance remix for fuck's sake! Anyway, no use being serious about it. So it's The Big Pink. Duo. London. Fog and love. Shoegaze. Jesus and The Mary Chain. Repression of anxieties. The Stone Roses. Hypnotizing drums. A much better Kasabian. Noise. Psychedelia. Alt-disco. (Pfff I should've just [...]

*Song Of The Day - The Big Pink "Velvet"

Life-long friends Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell started making music as The Big Pink in 2007, taking their name from the debut album by "The Band".

The Big Pink signed with famed British record label 4AD in February 2009. On February 25, 2009, [...]

Bad Fotography

This song is fucking EPIC. I first saw this video on Wolfing Hour 's blog about a few weeks back and its not something that can be easily forgotten. It's got an early 90s brit-rock feel to it and I cant help conjuring up The Verve in my head. Yeah its almost got that Richard Ashcroft-y vocals. The Big Pink 's wailing pleading vocals and the crashing wall of sound, noise, feedback pulls me at the heart strings so much that it reminds me so [...]

Strange Glue's 2009 Field Day Festival Preview

Whilst you can get your kicks at pretty much any festival this year, why not try something a little, well, smaller? Though London's Field Day is swamped in terms of size by the likes of Glastonbury, Reading and all the other giant musical events, Field Day is always one of, if not the most enjoyable festivals of late.

Was kommt nach Passion Pit, La Roux und Little Boots?

Auf der diesjährigen Newcomer-Liste kommen The Big Pink gleich hinter La Roux, Passion Pit und Little Boots. Nun ist ihre zweite Single erschienen und sie haben ihr Debüt angekündigt. Die Welt stand beinahe still. The Big Pink stehen nicht nur auf der BBC-Newcomer-Liste die jeweils zu Beginn des Jahres veröffentlich wird ganz oben. Aber dort taten sie es an ziemlich prominenter Stelle. Frau Stallone hat schon damals auf dieses Juwel hingewiesen. Ein zweites Mal schadet aber nicht. Nun haben die Engländer ihr Debüt-Album auf 4AD angekündigt, das im September erscheinen soll [...]
