Look Directly Into the Sun – China Pop

TooKoo’s demented Take Me Home is the best Franz Ferdinand rip-off I’ve ever heard, even pipping original inspiration Take Me Out for the screeching, slightly out of synch chorus.

British Sea Power – Do You Like Rock Music?

And Praise Be! Listening to this album isn’t about passing an extra-curricular history exam; it’s about getting down, Stooges style. Laying down thy raincoat and grooving; as you surely will to A Trip Out, a song which boasts the most primal, most dumb-ass drumming outside of Ceremony.

A Number of Small Things – Morr Singles collection 2001-2007.

Seavault’s take on Ultra Vivid Scene’s the Mercy Seat is near genius and Seabear’s version of Teenage Kicks is so ridiculously – but endearingly – inoffensive as to be almost beautiful.

Friska Viljor – Bravo

And another thing… what is it with the lyrics on these Nordic records? They’re always so heartbreakingly jumbled and emotional…

Pluramon – The Monstrous Surplus

Pluramon’s latest effort sounds pretty similar to the woozy anthems on Dreams Top Rock; scuzzy guitars wrestle and writhe and quiet breathless vocals attempt to cast spells on all who will listen.

A Serious Case of Inner Space… Incendiary worship at the feet of Can

Soon after the press conference breaks up for good. I find myself being politely (but quite surreally) handed a piece of cake by Holger Czukay.

Incendiary worship at the feet of Can – Part Two

I spot the widow of Michael Karoli pointing out his guitars to her children. “That’s dad’s guitar”… I wonder how she feels at all this.

Samara Lubelski – Parallel Suns

Another beautiful folk release is Parallel Suns, brimful of soft, beguiling music, even though opener Have you Seen the Colours is a spit for the Quo’s Pictures of Matchstick Men at times.

The Most Serene Republic – Population

The band just about stays the right side of pretentious by seeming to be utterly enthusiastic about anything and everything.

MV & EE with the Golden Road – Gettin’ Gone

Luckily the music matches the anticipation; this is as good a set of alternative, stumbling blues-rock as you’re likely to hear this twelvemonth and there’s the added bonus of J Mascis drumming here and there.
