rewind while sleepy
memory cassette ~ rewind while sleepy ep (independent, 2008)
today's the day of the second release of figure/colective from new jersey... another four track ep with lazy-dreamy-shoegazy-spacy tunes.
layers of fuzzy guitars in a song, shoegaze and electro pop vibe in another... and all have the whispered and sensual voice of a mistery female singer.
you can download it from here or check their blog (together with weird taped). their songs are also available to download there...
perfect (and warm) synthpop for summer night parties by the beach.
01. 50mph
02. listen to the vacuum
03. ghost in the boombox

today we'll have a new segment here... since i'm graduated in movies & video and for some time now i've been making videos for some of my favorite bands, i think it's necessary create a space for some visual contemplation.
to start, the brand new video of cats on fire new album 'tears in your cup'
the pains of being pure at heart and it's lovely 8mm film for 'everything with you'
and klaus & kinski's stop motion for 'flashback al revés'

the poor and needy need to party
knight school ~ the poor and needy need to party (lostmusic records, 2009)
brooklin seems to be the place on earth if you want to make great guitar pop songs... first we were blown away by the pains of being pure at heart and now's the time for knigth school: two boys, a girl and distorted fuzzy guitars.
this is their debut album and has 14 songs and around 25 minutes. "...is pop music that comes informed by the lo-fi shambling sounds that were kick started in the uk in the mid 1980s by the nme c86 cassette". (from the lostmusic website)
energetic and powerfull! 'you are the key' is brilliant!

kickstand
kickstand ~ kickstand (queenie records, 1994)
back in 1994, twin sisters tori and tammi colichio and guitarist jeff feuerzeig (also an independent filmmaker) released their debut album full of minimalist pop songs. understand by minimalist a guitar, bass, drums and hushed voices (sometimes the sister sharing vocals, sometimes jeff joining them). it is a clean but still lo-fi recording released on the cool girl-indie label queenie records.
the album has 23 songs, including covers for 'colossal youth' by young marble giants; 'teenage kicks' by the undertones (the cutest version i've ever heard) and the amazing 'tally ho' by the clean.
while the do-it-yourself-inspired melodic pop romps of bands like the pastels also figure here, kickstand absorbs its influences and heads into a clear direction of its own.they use keyboards in a few songs and it's awesome! 'slingshot' is a must hear with guitar and drums forming a basic melody and the keyboards taking the lead. 'not enough memory' follows the same path and makes me think of soda fountain rag.
damn good cutie-pop with sing-songy tunes and (sometimes) bold girl-empowering lyrics like in the opening track 'how to make a girl cry': 'put away your ammunition/she's got feminine intuiton'.
01. how to make a girl cry
02. my reputation
03. magic
04. lullaby
05. colossal youth (young marble giants cover)
06. i rode in saucers
07. slingshot
08. wish upon a star
09. not enough memory
10. whisper
11. teenage kicks (the undertones cover)
12. full moon
13. spiral
14. take the highway
15. spinning top
16. roller rink
17. once around town
18. why can't i
19. the card shuffle
20. daydream
21. get-well kiss
22. tally ho (the clean cover)
23. crumble
