kirsten Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Saw these guys live a couple of times, once supporting Idlewild in Glasgow, and I have to say they were one of the worst bands I've ever heard. Strange because Aereogramme were so awesome.Aw man, what didn't you like about them? Their first album is the most depressing but lovely thing ever.In other news, the new Guided By Voices album is up for preview on NPR: http://www.npr.org/2011/12/18/143507341/first-listen-guided-by-voices-lets-go-eat-the-factory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Zero Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 They're playing Primavera. Fun for all the family.I'm quite excited despite not having a ticket yet.They are also playing the Mogwai-curated day at the ATP thing in London next May. I'm quite tempted by that as Mudhoney and Codeine are also playing that day but I also want to see what dates they play on their own. But by the time that news in made public the ATP thing might sell out...dilemmas... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOX Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 I shall be shot down in flames for saying I am looking forward to the new Ting Tings album!Ting Tings aren't bad, just rather pushing the envelope as far as alternative music bleeds into pop.

Jaaakkkeee Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I've heard the album I was most looking forward to early.For me, it's going to be hard for any band to top Enter Shikari's new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Owl PhD Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 I honestly can't remember being as excited about an album as the forthcoming record by Julia Holter, called Ekstasis and due out in March. Her album 'Tragedy' from last year was my favourite of the year, and probably as good as any album I've heard in the last decade. She is ridiculously great, and the taster track from the album is fantastic:34839553Here are a few other tunes by her, most of which aren't on either album:33755740 10725439 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Graham Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 One of my favourite bands of the moment Lower Dens, announced new album details today. April 30th for Nootropics.They also released an mp3 of the track "Brains" which is fucking amazing. Give it a few listens.Here is the link to Pitchfork so you can stream it, but you can also download the track if you go to lowerdens.com.http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/13005-lower-dens-brains/I heartily recommend purchasing 2010's "Twin-Hand Movement" if you haven't already heard it.

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 You can listen to First Aid Kit's new album via NPR:http://www.npr.org/2012/01/15/144966888/first-listen-first-aid-kit-the-lions-roarI'd say that there are some good songs on there, (the second track stands out to me), but they've gotten a bit buried underneath a sryupy production.

Swingin' Ryan Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Mainly looking forward to Future of the Left, Alabama Shakes, Camera Obscura, M. Ward (hopefully) and Janelle Monae.Also looking forward to hearing more from - With all the navel-gazing electro recently I'd almost given up on bands making songs that go for your throat like these guys. Between these guys and Alabama Shakes the South of America is looking exciting. - Part of the History of Apple Pie and Veronica Falls crowd of bands that are actually still doing something interesting with the 'fuzzy reverb' sound that EVERY band has been doing for the last two years. XL have signed this guy which is probably an indication he's going to be massive. Somewhere between Daniel Johnston and Robert Johnson with a mad back story. - Scratchy, jangley 'proper' indie. Amazing Smiths cover, hopefully going to fill the gap the Long Blondes left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirsten Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I'm listening to the few songs by the Ritas on Spotify right now, due to Ryan saying the phrase "fill the gap the Long Blondes left".The singer sounds like a lady-Morrissey on 'Jeane', but it sounds good! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeane is the only tune they have that's properly 'produced' so it's a good indication of how they could sound.Any band that loves the Manics and references Kathleen Hanna and Kim Deal in their lyrics have got to be worth a punt!
