Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her - Red Talk (2002)


"What started with a girl humming and singing on a tape recorder quickly turned into one of the most prominent bands in the Japanese underground scene. The original members of Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her were Aiha Higurashi (Vocal and Guitar) and Sachiko Ito (Bass). They had no past musical experience, and didn’t know much about playing their instruments, but they went on playing some shows anyway."

This here is a compilation album put out around the time of the bands split. It contains some of their best material followed by some of their not-so-best material. I'll be uploading more of these girls in the future but this should be enough to get your feet wet. Honestly this shit is hard to find so get it while you can.

192 'cause it's so fucking hard to find.

Asobi Seksu - Rewolf (2009)


One more inb4 wtfyourface posts. I don't fucking understand how this album was released without my knowledge. It angers me that none of my so called "friends" informed me of this albums existence. Fucking ACOUSTIC seksu.

Download it. 320.

Devendra Banhart - What Will We Be (2009)


"I know I look high
But I'm just free dancing"

This dropped the end of last month. I'm just now giving it a listen because recently I haven't really been feeling freak folk. Which is perfect it turns out, it seems as if Banhart has moved away from freak folk a bit with this release. There's some really nice sounds on this album and it's nice to see him taking a different direction in his music.

If anyone asks I'll upload more DB.

Letting Up Despite Great Faults - S/T (2009)


“Bashfully bittersweet shoegaze from Los Angeles that wear their hearts on every inch of their body…the sort of dreamy indie pop that boys want to make and girls want to fall in love with with synths that ooze romance, guitar lines straight out of New Order’s Power, Corruption & Lies and vocals that provide as much warmth as a bearskin rug by an open fire.”

Aight, I guess I'll be the one to take this blogs post virginity. I most likely will not be making clever comments/comparisons/reviews and such in my future posts here, I'm just not that creative and I cbf. I will however (hopefully) be delivering some quality music you may not have heard before.

So I found these guys a couple days ago and I really been digging them. Think Radio Dept + M83.

Get (sorry for the shitty AAC)
