Bloody Good Tu(n)esday: Matti Jasu and the Loose Train, The Sonic Mood Set, The Click Beetles, Slushy, Human Colonies, Plant Cell

Herewith, a few idylls by which to idle away this Ides of March.

Thanks to Power Popa Holic for the headsup up on these young Turku Finns.

Are we beginning to seem like a wholly unowned subsidiary of The Active Listener? Would that be a bad thing? Check out TAL's excellent compilation, The Great British Psychedelic Trip Revisited for more groovy psychpop. In addition to the one in the widget, we particularly liked #5, Rob Clarke & The Wooltones' cover of The Monkees' "(I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone," and #8, Holy Glories' "In Your Tower." Actually, they're in the widget, too.

Our favorite from Popdose's Dw Dunphy's excellent compilation.

TRADITIONAL POWERPOPULIST SPACEHOLDER THINGY

Check out our previous Slushy post and visit their various Bandcamp pages for lots more name-your-pricers.

Above and below are our two favorites from The Blog That Celebrates Irself's excellent Chapterhouse tribute compilation.

We ourselves paid tribute to Chibaband Plant Cell in a previous post. This cover cements our love. (Pardon the mixed metaphor.)

plant cell - marguerite

Not sure who "marguerite" is, but this glorious gazejangler by Chiba band plant cell is almost unbearably beautiful. You'll find many more downloadables at their SoundCloud page. Face off with them here.

Many thanks to Psychgazer for the headsup. Pgazer's latest playlist (.94/November) is almost unbelievably excellent, but believable nevertheless because we always find tons of terrific tuneage there.

Update, 12march16: The download link has been removed at SoundCloud, but we found the wonderful song on a Kiiro Records Shoegaze3 compilation, which directed us to the comp's free download page.
