My personal favorite festival Paredes de Coura is just ahead and we’re here to welcome it. Almost a landmark in Portugal, Paredes de Coura is turning twenty this year. And what a big boy it has become. From the likes of Sonic Youth, Arcade Fire, Dinosaur Jr., Queens of the Stone Age, Yo La Tengo, Mogwai, PJ Harvey, Pixies, Death from Above 1979, Morrissey, Bauhaus, The Cramps (and we could keep going), the shores of river Tabuão (that sets the perfect idyllic scenery) have seen it all. More than you probably will in your whole life.

Olive Trips SOS

Post date April 28, 2012

Olive Troops SOS is a trio consisting of Bruno Silva (a.k.a. the guy who writes the best reviews at Bodyspace.net, ex-aequo with Rafael Santos), Carlos Nascimento and Vítor Lopes (who I haven’t the pleasure of knowing personally, but I’m sure they’re equally awesome people). Their new record, Atol, is the kind of droney electronica you’d expect from a kösmiche band in the 21st century (instead of a kösmiche band in the 20th century who dreams about the 21st) and you can buy it for whatever price you think is reasonable at their Bandcamp, below. They’re also selling K7s (and you should now how much we love those things), of which they have a WHOLE AMAZING AMOUNT OF… thirty copies. Damn, if you like K7s as much as we do, hurry up.
