An Hour of Eloquent Sounds
Absolutely fantastic post-punk compilation that I found on this rad blog, including excellent songs by Dante & the Lobster, Marine Girls, Cocteau Twins and Primal Scream, get it if you care about this stuff I guess
Steel Phantoms - Forer EP
Nice EP with a guy who used to be in Islands and another guy who sounds loads like Stephen Merritt. Get it for free here
I recorded this album in my dining room. To be completely honest I’m quite paranoid about putting it out. My first release got a response far better than I’d ever hoped and I guess to a degree I’m worried that people who really enjoyed the first album will be dissapointed by this. I released my…
fantastic album, definitely recommended
Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible
Wow this album is really intense, these guys came out of Wales in 1986, released this fantastic album, then the lyricist went missing and they never found him, afterwards they never released anything as good, which is a shame, this album really is excellent, and titles like “IfWhiteAmericaToldTheTruthForOneDayIt’sWorldWouldFallApart” are p. good. What makes this album really is the lyrics though, you definitely have to listen through it carefully to get all the horrible imagery etc. Get it HERE
Sounds kind of like Of Montreal + Beach Fossils mixed all up
Wild Nothing - Gemini
Lovely shoegazy pop made by one dude, makes you feel great and this guy knows the loveliest chords. Get the album here. Also pay attention to the bassline in this song because it is rad
Neutral Milk Hotel - Boxset
So excited when I realised this contained a bunch of unreleased and difficult to find NMH songs, these are great & u should get them posthaste. Get it here
Clams Casino
This guy came out of literally nowhere and made amazing backing tracks for hilarious hip hop dudes (li’l b hahaha) and now he’s released the instrumentals and they’re so so good, also an EP I haven’t actually listened to but I can’t imagine it actually being bad.
