I am in a twee pop mood.
Some good twee poppers:
Cults. a two piece from NY
and Summer Camp. who are getting to be "a very big deal"
Talk To The Moose
6 months on and me and my sister CAN'T get over this gap advert. 0.21.... amazing.
Sea Serpents
excited about these guys. Going to see them in the Sanderson courtyards next week as part of the Sanderson Predicts series.
Kyla la Grange
This is really good, was dubious about the title, to be honest anything that cites anything vaguely blood sucker related in probably the next ten years is going to be slightly uncomfortable and immediately written off, but this, this is good.
ANOTHER YEAR GONE
Yeah so predictably Glastonbury took over my life. Ten best moments:
10. lissie covering bad romance
9. crushing on Jack White & Alison Mosshart even though their crowd were terrible.
8. Josh k-holeing midway through Stevie Wonder only to surge like a phoenix from the ashes as soon as Superstition began.
7. Michael 'tone-deaf' Eavis joining Stevie on stage for Happy Birthday.
6. The xx on the Park Stage.
5. snoop doggy daawwwwwwg "three things you got do every mornin..."
4. Florence singing the Chain. INSANE.
3. The ENTIRE scissor sisters set.
2. Singing Beatles songs with Emerick (coolest guy ever) seranading about 20 of us with his guitar skillzzz, about 6am on the steps of the dragon at the Stone Circle.
1. Shangri-La & Arcadia Saturday night. Drunken nutella times back at the tent.

I keep bleating (?) on about these guys to anyone that'll listen but IO Echo are playing shows in LA that I JUST CAN'T GO TO and it's beyond irritating. I mean, this looks like an amazing show at Space 1530 for IAmSound Records
also been listening to Smith Westerns, they're playing a couple of shows in London over the next couple of days but I can't really make any of them. Sometimes I really just wish that bands would do daytime shows (not like Ellen or Oprah, like being hungover at a festival, eating chinese food and catching the mid afternoon slots)
Me and Ems became obsessed with this song "Letters To The Sky" by Civil Twilight, due to the fact it was on Harper's Island, so we went to see them at Mondo Water Rats last night. Turns out they were amazing, as were their support band Company of Thieves. The lead singer of Company of Thieves was totally rad and gave us their CD for free.
here's their myspace
