Love both these. Magnapop was doing a live on FB yesterday.

Magnapop. I cannot help but listen to Slowly, slowly" with velocity girl's "sorry again" and Spinane's "Spitfire" all in a row. they all belong together for me.

Magnapop's "Lay It Down" was secretly one of the great songs of the 90s.

Great song, listening to it and that 2nd album a lot lately. It's odd I never checked out that 2nd album of theirs until recently because I loved their 1st one so much.

The second is my favourite. Their fourth, Hello June Fool, is really, really excellent too.

2nd LP is my first and still favourite, Drop a Bomb -> Ultra Anxiety -> Happy New Year especially.

They were so so great live, too. I remember an "unplugged" show at Dingwalls circa Panic On, with everyone plugged in and Johnny Kick playing conga with empty Evian bottles, that was just wonderfulness. They did the best covers, too.

apparently there's a new Madder Rose album coming out later this year. I love their 1st 2 albums so much, I think Panic On is one of my favourite albums of all time tbh

Excellent news - there was great stuff on the album they put out on 2019. Their first two albums are fantastic, but I also really love their fourth, Hello June Fool. Very much worth checking out if you've never heard it.

New album (‘No One Gets Hurt Ever’) is now out and I’m enjoying it. Really liked ‘To Be Beautiful’ too.

I love it. Better than the last one! Much more in their classic vein.
