Sundae...

New single + video from Spanish indie pop act Sundae...so incredibly sweet, though I don't understand a single word they are singing...




Verano-invierno [2012] by Sundae (Spain)

Shorties...

I fucking hate the stupid firewall at work. Because of it I’m unable to watch the video of Mikkel Max og Drømmenes Bodega performing a live version of De Sidste Glade Dage af Romerriget in a submarine!

Mr. Skatterbrain thinks new track Again by Sad Day For Puppets sounds like gold and so do I! It can be found on the band’s forthcoming 7” single, which will be out on Cloudberry Records very soon.
+ Again

J.A. recommends the new brilliant single by Sundae. Released by digital single label Beko and it's free to download (don’t we just love that?)!

Heard new single All Outta Love by The Floor Is Made Of Lava on the radio this morning. Hmm!

No hablo español...

Or is the correct expression“no habla español”? J.A. can you please guide me?

Thanks to this post on the Shelflife blog and the irresistible enthusiasm oozing from the aforementioned J.A., I’m currently enjoying four brand new demo tracks by Spanish indie pop/shoegaze band Sundae. The band is not quite new to me, as J.A. recommended the quartet (?) to me exactly a year ago, which back then led to this post. Now the band is back again and sounding like The Radio Dept. singing in Spanish, which has to be one of the highest accolades imaginable. All four tracks are free to download and one can only recommend that you grab all of them before the band is signed and the tracks removed. And if there’s any justice in this world this could happen any day soon.

Speaking of The Radio Dept., there’s still no news on the band’s third album. Last update indicated “an early 2009 release”, which unfortunately seems quite unlikely now.

Check the line-up for this year’s Indietracks Festival and start drooling!

Coming soon on German label afmusic is a digital release (EP or album?) by Swedish gothic/new wave quartet Diskoteket. Meanwhile enjoy the 2006 self-titled EP, which is free to download in its entirety.

Spanish indie...

On the threshold of the weekend, the ever reliable J.A. sends an email recommending a bunch of new songs from two excellent Spanish indie pop bands. Both bands are singing in Spanish (don't be scared - ok!), but whereas Band a Part has taken the Belle & Sebastian/Camera Obscura approach writing short and sweet songs featuring brass, flute, vibraphone etc., Sundae from Sevilla has decided to walk down the path where various electronic elements are added to the genre (without abandoning it at all). But as always, I find it a lot more important (and so should you really) that the bands write stunningly beautiful songs that simply cannot be recommended enough.
Sundae:
+ Mil Canciones
+ Hacia Atras
+ El Cine
Band a Part:
+ Menorca
+ Souvenir de l'Avenir
+ Sputnik Mon Amour
