Jesu...

As per usual I've been sleeping under a rock and somehow completely missed that something interesting was brewing. Weird-named Danish act The Late Great Fitzcarraldos has been doing pretty well recently on indie radio chart Barometerlisten with this track named Jesu and deservedly so. I do however (as always) find it pretty damn close to impossible to describe the music...but it's a meditative, groovy and electronic piece that at the same time somehow manages to be pretty catchy as well...and really, really cool!

HML...

Stream/download new track HML by Finns Delay Trees. Sounding great (this band is great so of course is does) and thus perfect appetizer for forthcoming album Doze...

2 quick ones...

Work is pretty much fucked up these days and leaves me absolutely no time for blogging. Work pays the bills I know, but that aside it pretty much sucks!

Lovebugs has recorded this nice little cover of one of the anthems of my teenage years (recall kissing a few girls while dancing to this one...believe it or not!)...



The great The Boombox Hearts are in the midst of recording their debut album, which (I quote) "will be gloomy as fuck". This track has been judged "too happy" to make the album (which could indeed end up being a depressive mess, if this is too happy), so instead it will serve as an appetizer while we're all awaiting the release of the debut...

J.A. recommends...

Have completely lost track how many times J.A. has recommended songs by completely unknown bands that have made me go WOW! There's Something In The Stars Tonight by (new?) UK act HUSH! is the most recent one and of course it's a wonderful and catchy guitar-pop track (he's a sucker for those) or simply put...a classic indie-pop tune!

Bring out the brooms...

Been a while, so spending a little time today checking mails. Despite writing fewer and fewer posts the emails keep on coming, so my guess is that none of the people sending are actually paying any attention to the activity (or lack of it) on the blog! Naively (as always) hoping that I'll find some interesting stuff...if I do, it will pop up somewhere in the right column (just look for "NEW!" and should have no problems finding it/them)...

Poles apart...

Finally...new music and a video from incredibly promising Victories at Sea. Poles Apart might not be as fantastic as Future Gold, but still pretty damn amazing!



Apparently not a completely new track as I just found this 10 month old remix of it!

Mirror...

I really, really ought to write on and on about how truly fabulous the new Cody album Fractures is, but right now I'm experiencing what probably is the worst writer's block ever, since I started this blog. So instead I'll just share their new video for the wonderful track Mirror and hopefully it will inspire you to check out the album!

We're supposed to be in love...

New video from Crybaby for the truly wonderful single We're Supposed To Be In Love...

Four to the floor...

Check this live studio recording of new VETO track Four To The Floor from their forthcoming album (Sinus).

This and that...

Still busy...and lazy...

This sucks in a major sucking way. The utterly brilliant The Holiday Crowd will be at Stengade on September 7 and since months I have other and completely non-cancellable plans for that evening. If ever, now is the time to us the f-word!
+ Never Speak Of It Again

Check the line-up for this year's Indie Pop Days Berlin and let your heart be filled with envy...unless of course you're one of the lucky bastards who are going!
+ Azure Blue - Little Confusions

In a promo mail Victories At Sea promises that "there will be something new for your eyes and ears very soon". Future Gold was (and remain) one heck of a track, but can't live on that track forever, so new material is eagerly awaited!


On his Facebook page, Northern Portrait frontman Stefan confirms that the rumours about a new EP are in fact more than just rumours. Another rumour, started by Stefan himself, suggests that it will be released in September, though of course it doesn't say what year...!
