[Music] What's the best song you have heard today? Share it here.

[Stato]

I've got a couple of albums by Laura Stevenson and her song 'Jellyfish' popped up at random in the car the other day. I subsequently played a Youtube video of the song and there was a comment about the album's producer Jeff Rosenstock. I can't believe he'd passed me by. I've been listening to loads of his stuff since. Keep replaying this:

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Have recently discovered Confidence Man and this is their best song I've come across so far.

Ooooh, that's good!

I seem to have 8 CDs worth of Fraunhofer Diffraction on a perpetual loop. So pleasing.

I think I saw they're supporting New Order at the O2 later this year.

I like that a lot. Something in it makes me think of Crystal Castles a little bit. Not this song specifically but there's a shared feeling in the music maybe

Ah, Alice Glass. I like some of CC's stuff, but less fond of Alice Glass' other work.

The Witch House genre is much more diverse than some might imagine.

I wandered into it via White Ring, who span into shoegaze and indie (sort of - that's what I was surfing when I stumbled in). Fraunhofer Diffrection is such a big name I avoided listening to him for several years (yes, I know) but . . . . so much lovely.

There are so many acts.... but some (especially the more melodic and less....silly) are essential listens:

Portwave, Øfdream, Funeral Flowers, Artonoise, △Sco△, Black Ceiling, Axius Link, Peaki, Beneath my shade, Skeler, Churn, VSN7, Bewitched as dark, and many, many others. Mmmmmm.....dreamy.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Cracking song reminds me of seeing them last year.

 

[Insel affe]

this is sublime, kinda makes me angry bands as talented as The Delta Bombers will never get recognition and some pure crap is promoted, and revered above class such as this, I guess being kings of a subculture is better.

The Superlatives are superlative, as is Marty Stuart…

And some lovely local scenery to boot…

 

[Barrow Boy]

So ahead of their time back in the 70's, this was exactly how they sounded at The Dome in 73.

This came up on the iPOD yesterday in the car. Very pleasing indeed, I thought.



This is a one man project, Vadim Plotnikov from Ishim. Started in 2010. So many lovely shoegaze acts out there.

I love the Delta Bombers (thanks to your posts on here).
At least they can be proud their audience want to hear and see them.
Unlike the audiences at promoted crap shows .... selfies of being seen there.

 

[METALMICKY]

Thus far my favourite track off the new album.

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Gah! Not even halfway through Anthony Bourdain in Shanghai and was already thinking of this most glorious of things

 

[Worried Man Blues]

 

[pearl]

EPIC!
Changed my mind today ...

 

[Pevenseagull]

I've listened to lots of stuff including Low, Talk Talk and Broken Social Scene tonight

Bit my favourite was
