Mexican band Melted Ice Cream have posted a few songs on Bandcamp of which Todas Las Noches (Every Night) is my pick of the bunch. It’s another one of those fuzzy/noisy pop-punk songs the band have perfected so well. The … Continue reading Melted Ice Cream – Todas Las Noches
The debut single from Oakland’s The Greengrocers features two tracks. Rotten Apple’s is the sound of a flexi disc sellotaped to a fanzine cover from days gone by. It’s a short, fuzzy burst of indiepop and reminds me of a … Continue reading The Greengrocers – Single
Seablite are back with their new single Breadcrumbs. It sounds like the band have discovered their “inner Lush” as the track reminds me of that band’s early days. The track opens up with the drums being harshly pounded before the … Continue reading Seablite – Breadcrumbs

Vienna’s Laundromat Chicks are back with a lo-fi track resplendent with jangling guitars and programmed beats. The vocals are deadpan but catchy with it too as they repeat the lines “we spent so much of our dreaming, we spend so … Continue reading Laundromat Chicks – It Must Be the Stars

Peaness return with a new single in the shape of What’s The Use? It’s an addictive indiepop track thanks to the chorus as well as the thriving guitar and bass. The song deals with mental health issues but does not … Continue reading Peaness – What’s The Use?
Hmmm. Given that this is a shoegaze song I thought the title might be ironic. Whilst there are some shimmering guitars just like the Oxford quartets the debut single from Australian band Dream Room allows them to stamp their own identity on a sometimes flogged to death genre.
