Seeing Hands – Seeing Hands

Newcastle’s Seeing Hands new 10″ single compiles all their releases to date from 2016’s Treat You Right to I Know You which was released earlier this year. There is also a new track in the shape of Colours which gets proceedings underway and it’s a sparkling mix of dream and jangle pop. The whole EP continues in the same vein.

Puzzles y Dragones – Fuerzas Absurdas

More tuneful indiepop for you today in the shape of Fuerzas Absurdas (Absurd Forces in English) from Puzzles y Dragones. It’s taken from their forthcoming debut album Vuelven Puzzles y Dragones and is their first release since 2013’s Somos Puzzles y Dragones. As for the track it’s catchy and bouncy in all the right places despite the sombre lyrics (I had to translate them!). I will be keeping an ear out for the album which is due out next month on Discos De Kirlian. Facebook Continue reading Puzzles y Dragones – Fuerzas Absurdas

We. the Pigs – EP2

Fusing indiepop and shoegaze together Malmo’s We. the Pigs make a lovely tuneful racket. This is their second EP and picks up right where the first left off. Noisy but blissful and shimmering guitars bounce off the vocals causing the listener to sway with gay abandon. And if Too Young is not floating around your top 10 tracks of 2017 come December then you must be listening you the wrong thing. Or I am! Available on 7″ vinyl or digital formats from Discos De Kirlian. Facebook Soundcloud Continue reading We. the Pigs – EP2

Jessica & The Fletchers – Connecting People

Barcelona’s Jessica & The Fletchers have just released their debut album. Entitled Connecting People it’s chock fall of noisy and fun pop tunes that hark back to years gone by especially the fuzzier side of the C86 era. So much so they should have released it on a flexi disc. Connecting People is limited to just 100 CD copies (it’s begging for a vinyl release) on the Discos De Kirlian label. Get it from here or digitally from the band or label. Facebook Continue reading Jessica & The Fletchers – Connecting People
