Cakes and Tapes alumni The Shilohs have just released their sophomore LP and you can stream the fuck out of it on their Bandcamp. You know you’ll always need some fresh and good pop rock music in your life, especially when considering Alex Chilton’s dead and there’s no more Big Star for you. Oh, and if you’re into Felt, please check track 10, “Down at the Bottom of Bottomland”. Amazing stuff. The Shilohs have spent some time on the road with Real Estate earlier this year and will present their selftitled album in the US and Canada opening for other indie pop geniuses The Fresh & Onlys next July. Sometimes I wish I didn’t live in Europe.

Our friends at Pug Records have just started their new series of singles, Mutt Singles. The first one, Ciro Madd’s “You and Me” is now available for streaming on Soundcloud. A must for anyone who’s ever heard about Teenage Fanclub, we must say.
Renowned for travelling from sixties folk-psychedelic to eighties shoegaze, Ciro Madd has penned a baroque pop tune for the first issue. You and Me is a charming symphony of keyboards and vocals wrapped up in George Harrison-style riffs, recommended for fans of the Beach Boys and The Zombies.

Fat Cat/Lefse has unveiled the track Spiritualized contributed with to the amazing Space Project (read more about it here) and it’s easily the best song Jason Pierce has done since 2001’s Let It Come Down. Note: this is coming from someone who played Songs in A&E obsessively for two months.

Now that we’re slowly spiraling into the cold season again, do you remember how life seemed so amazing three months ago? Temperatures rising, holidays creeping up on the horizon, heavy drinking sessions with friends (except for poor ol’ me, dealing with antibiotics at the time) and Optimus Primavera Sound for those lucky enough to be there. We catched your happiness on film (with a smartphone, but still) so you could go back in time whenever you want.
