the end of the sea.


paul from Polyvinyl Craftsmen (which is a killer blog by the way & currently has me addicted to their mixes) was nice enough to send me some sounds from uprising uk band Wobbly Lamps.

the following tracks are from their debut ep, Neon Tee Pee, which is concoction of upbeat rock tinged with a bit of loud garage. upon listening, this heavily channeled the cramps ala bad music for bad people & if you know that album then you'll probably get a feeling this ep is gonna be a good one. and get it while it's hot - currently this is limited to not so many releases!

thunder from down under.

apparently melbourne, aus is still bringing it in the pop noise punk department. the dudes in Rayon Moon recently hipped me to the guys in Sandcastle. this little quartet, formed in late 2011, released an amazing ep back in april & while only 3 tracks long - it's really fucking killer.

seriously get on top of this, especially if you've been riding the white fence train. this ep is a clean cut blend of post punk greatness & i can't wait to hear more from these guys. makes me wish i was back in melbs to see them live!

chicas bonitas.

i started listening to barcelona, spain's,  Mujeres, back when i was in scotland & needed a little sunshine in my life. their most recent album, well if you consider recent something that was released back in march, is chopped full of surf jangles with a heavy dose of that garage you know i love so much - proof that the european scuzz invasion continues! (if you're a fan of the black lips, you're seriously going to dig this.)

check out the awesome video for their killer opening track, soft gems pt. 1:  HERE!
