All We Are...a bit too slinky for indie, too guitar-y for pop. i love this track and theres a live version thats even better imo...will def go see when they play nearby in March

It's more Ane Brun than Annie, so not this-thready. But I still come back to it 5 years later.

Keep Shelly in Athens's new singer Myrtha is a good fit. Music's a bit more organic and dreamy than I've recalled from them.

Tei Shi released "Bassically" last year, but it just got a video in the past few days. I love this song, and now its video takes it to a whole 'nother level.

Not sure how well does Róisín Murphy fit in here but I think at least this track isn't too out of place. It's a little on the weird/experimental side for my taste but it's got at least a few moments of brilliance:

There's also a Karin Park song in Melodi Grand Prix but the YouTubes I've heard so far have crappy sound quality.

I like that Latvian one. The Iceland one is...uh, I dunno. It's just kind of there.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 18 February 2015 02:09 (nine years ago) link
Love the Iceland one! Too bad it's eliminated. I like the Latvian one as well. I never really pay much attention to Eurovision, but I'm kind surprised this kind of stuff even competes.

Emily Vaughn - Hollowhttp://indietronica.org/2015/02/07/emily-vaughn-hollow/
riyl Sky Ferreira, Ryn Weaver. strong vocals, addictive hooks, top production. this track is so alike Ryn Weaver.

first interview
“Life as a journey” A talk with Emily Vaughnhttp://www.c-heads.com/2015/02/17/life-as-a-journey-a-talk-with-emily-vaughn/
"Well as of right now, I’m traveling back and forth from Florida to LA and recording my EP. The goal is to release it and play those songs on a tour, then work on the full length album!"
i remember when Ryn Weaver launched on soundcloud, minimal details, no mention of a major record deal. If Emily is travelling to LA maybe a major label / publisher has signed her already?
― djmartian, Sunday, 22 February 2015 15:03 (nine years ago) link
I like a lot of the production/instrumentation details in "Hollow," but the chorus seems kind of flat for a song that sounds that big.

Maybe a little overboard on the filtered vocals, but I like the keyboard voicing choices.

I am ready for some new Chairlift and some new Poliça (even though their last album was a bit disappointing) this year. Anyone know whether this'll happen?
― Broth Viking (dog latin), Monday, 23 February 2015 15:25 (nine years ago) link
I've never been able to really embrace Poliça, despite them being "shambhala" as hell, but I wouldn't turn down any new Chairlift for sure.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 23 February 2015 16:14 (nine years ago) link
Give You The Ghost is just chocka with great songs; Shulamith not so much. The effects on Channy's voice can be a barrier but I soon got used to it.

The Say Lou Lou album is out there now. It's just been released in Sweden and can be bought on import. It doesn't come out in the US/UK until April 6th. Just giving it a listen for the first time now.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 16:24 (nine years ago) link
Still mad they put stupid "Julian" on it and left off the beautiful "Maybe You."
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 16:27 (nine years ago) link
Interesting that you say you are mad about that as their Popjustice thread is full of people complaining Eclipse hasn't been included. I haven't heard either of those songs but will have to check them out after I finish the album. It sounds good so far.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 16:34 (nine years ago) link
I hadn't heard Eclipse before people started complaining it wasn't on there. Turns out to be quite nice.
Julian was their second single back a couple years ago. After introducing themselves with Maybe You, anything probably would've been a letdown, but even with that caveat I still think Julian is a fairly terrible song.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 16:38 (nine years ago) link
I haven't been following them from the beginning like you and plenty of others have been doing. I only got into them from the two songs nominated on the Spotify playlist (Everything We Touch and Games For Girls) I didn't realised they had already put out six singles. Along with Maybe You they left off Better In The Dark as well. They did put a few B-sides on there though which is a bit strange.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 16:59 (nine years ago) link
I think I found out about them at the beginning because I'm always sort of paying attention to all things The Church, and since they're Steve Kilbey's daughters they became immediately interesting.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 17:04 (nine years ago) link
Just listened to Maybe You and Better In The Dark. Both should be on the album.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 17:10 (nine years ago) link
Eternal Death album came out today on Labrador. not really what I'd expect from a band named Eternal Death, but within the bounds of what I'd expect from a band on Labrador. it's sounding nice on first listen.

― fffv, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 18:11 (nine years ago) link
I've been getting pr emails about Eternal Death for months. None of the songs I've heard so far have stuck with me, but I'll give the whole lp a spin.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 24 February 2015 18:21 (nine years ago) link
listening to SLL now. I always liked Julian! Wasn't into that one with chet faker, is that on here? (guess i'm about to find out!)
― bae sremmurd (monotony), Wednesday, 25 February 2015 01:11 (nine years ago) link
Did you enjoy the album monotony? Think it could do with a few upbeat songs in the middle section but I did really enjoy it.
― Kitchen Person, Wednesday, 25 February 2015 03:29 (nine years ago) link
very pleasant - in terms of stuff in this lane i think it's a lot better than the indiana & rae morris albums but maybe not quite as good (certainly not as interesting) as the susanne sundfor
i'm happy they made "games for girls" as it reminds me of the thing of theirs i've returned to the most - the tiger & woods remix of "better in the dark"
