Stay in Munich...

Things aren't exactly going my way today, so I really have no time for writing. So while I'm working and trying to get everything back to square one, I'll leave you with these two brand new tracks, by a couple of bands previously featured in the blog.

The Young Ones is from the forthcoming debut album by Danish indie-rock act Munich. It's up-tempo, haunting and catchy, and if the rest of the album is this great, it certainly is something to be looking forward to.

The Myspace page of Spanish quartet Stay is entirely in Spanish, so I really have no idea what is going on. But I believe I Feel You Around must be a brand new one, but of course I could be wrong here (J.A. - can you help?). But a nice one it is, and the Kashmir reference makes perfect sense once you've listened to the track.

J.A. Recommends!!!!!

As promised earlier today; here are the best of the songs recently recommended to me by Spanish music freak J.A. (no, no - it's not him in the picture!). He sure deserves all the credit he can get, 'cause he definitely has a knack for finding interesting (and partly unknown) bands. I'm beginning to start wondering what he's doing for a living, because he (seemingly) has all the time in the world to search for new music!!

I mentioned Spanish indie pop band Stay in my previous post and this is perfect stuff if you're into a nostalgic trip back in time. Lots of inspirations from bands like The Byrds and The Hollies.

Everywhere Is Home is the first (and really good) single from the album Feel Free by Swiss alternative band The Shell. The entire album can be downloaded for free here. Read more about the band over at Schallgrenzen.

Swedish indie pop 5-piece Eyedrop released an 8-track album called You And Me vs. The Machine in 2003 on Dead Frog Records and then split up in 2005. Once you've listened to the two tracks below I'm certain that you'll agree that it was quite a shame the band decided to part ways! More songs can be found here.
+ Sweet Machine
+ City Moan

One of the members of Eyedrop went on to join another Swedish indie 5-piece; Emerald Park. The band is currently working on their second album (to be produced by Ola Frick of Moonbabies) and according to plans a 4-track EP will be released in December. The two songs below are from the EP and hopefully the rest of the album will be as good as this!
+ Open (Myspace "quality")
+ Lights Of Sunday

2 more bands to come.......will be posted tomorrow.....

Morning update

I'm currently "chewing" my way through the recent doze of recommendations received from J.A. Check back for updates later today. As an appetizer I've posted a really catchy 60's inspired track from Spanish indie pop band Stay.
