pacific!


Οι Σουηδοί έκαναν για άλλη μια φορά το pop θαύμα τους,αυτή την φορά με το ντούετο απο το Gothenburg,όπου κυκλοφορήσαν ίσως το πιο καλοκαιρινό δίσκο της χρονιάς.Με μια τεράστια αφίσα του Brian Wilson (και εικόνισμα να του είχαν κάνει δεν θα μου φαινόταν καθόλου περίεργο)στο στούντιο τους και επιρροές απο Phoenix και Air,ηχογράφησαν ένα pop διαμαντάκι που σίγουρα θα το έχεις και θα το ακούς για πολύ καιρό μαζί σου.

Το "Reveries" των Pacific κυκλοφορεί απο σήμερα απο την Σουηδική Dolores Recordings αλλά και απο την Moshi Moshi Records.Και φυσικά έπονται και τα αναμενόμενα 12" remixes που θα κυκλοφορήσουν σε λίγο καιρό απο την XL Recordings.


Pacific - Disappear

Foxface


Foxface are a three-piece band based in Glasgow, Scotland. They released a self-funded debut 7” Monster Seas/Across To Texa in April 2006, contributed a track to Chemikal Underground Records’ critically applauded 'Ballads Of The Book' compilation earlier this year, and have now recorded their eagerly anticipated debut album 'This Is What Makes Us' for Gargleblast Records. Recently the band has embarked on a tour supporting Idlewild’s Roddy Woomble, as well as appearing at the Isle of Skye, Greenman, Indian Summer and Belladrum Festivals. Their live performances have become legendary in Scotland, a menagerie of eclectic instrumentation and eccentric costume giving them an air of the otherworldly, one where folk heritage blends with modern rock and roll.


To "Last Waltz" είναι πραγματικά ένα απο τα ωραιότερα τραγούδια που άκουσα εδώ και καιρό.Φαίνεται ότι οι Son & Daughters και οι Arab Strap βρήκαν για τα καλά τους συνεχιστές τους.


Foxface - We can't afford to go away


Foxface - We can dance

Σελ.123


"Τι είναι ετεροθαλής αδερφός;"ρώτησε.
"Είναι μισός αδερφός",είπε η μητέρα της προσεχτικά,"είναι όταν ο ένας γονιός είναι ο ίδιος και ο άλλος δεν είναι".
"Μπορώ να έχω έναν ολόκληρο αδερφό,σε παρακαλώ;"

Απο το βιβλίο του Neil Jordan,"Σκιά"
