What's The Craic?

From the Runaround 7" single, released November 2013

THE FIREWORKS - With My Heart

Pinkshinyultrablast
Release single ‘Holy Forest’
Out 19th January on Club AC30

•	“A quiet riot of ethereal vocals and lustrous guitars. Pinkshinyultrablast a valid insight into young modern Russia via the early-90s Thames Valley.” Guardian 

•	“Beautifully toned and unconventionally fast, a gutsy effort that makes a big impression” NME

•	“A complex but sumptuous confluence of mathy basslines and waves of melodic ecstasy.” Q

•	“Excessively impressive, unexpectedly fast-paced shoegaze from these Russian peeps.” Drowned In Sound

Pinkshinyultrablast, a five-piece band from Saint-Petersburg in Russia, are set to release their debut album ‘Everything Else Matters’ on 26th January.

Hailing from a city more synonymous with the State Conservatory rather than a gang of shoegaze addicts, they’ve been compared to Lush. But this is no mere throwback tribute - due to their sharp, icy electronics and ability to subvert the genre, bringing something new to the table. They possess  not only the spirit of late 80s/early 90s British bands like Ride, but also machine-made sounds of the same era from Sabres Of Paradise or Global Communication, not to mention wider vibrations like Cluster, Popul Vuh, Terry Riley and Philip Glass.

Disdain for a stagnant scene can often be a driving force of creativity; the band say of St Petersburg that, “we realised the local indie scene was totally boring and wanted to play something radically different”. That vision has been realised – this is an album brimming with playful melody and finely-crafted songwriting. Imagine the scope of a Caribou record, fronted by Elizabeth Fraser soundtracking a grizzly Raskolnikov crime.

The band take their name from an Astrobrite album, an act who were, according to the band, instrumental in how they “researched spaces between ambient, heavy guitar and pop music” .The spaces are what stand out, the production creates a dream-like affair, while space to breathe and reflect on the beauty of the music is accommodated. There is a sparseness to the album that in turn gives spaciousness, even expansiveness.

The second single ‘Holy Forest’ is released 19th January. The song is indicative of an album full of melodic gems and shimmering shoegaze - euphoric with spectral guitars, its sharp edged pop has a radiant charm.  Welcome to your new favourite Russian band.

Pinkshinyultrablast are Igor - bass, Lyubov - vocals, Sergey - drums, Rustam - synths and electronics and Roman – guitars.


Pinkshinyultrablast - Holy Forest

The new single by the North East’s most exciting new band MARTHA, is “Present Tense”, a song about a flakey punk friend with delusions of grandeur. With their signature charge of electric energy, breathlessly perfect pop tunes and a sense of exuberant excitement, the song is one of the crowd favourites at their hugely entertaining live shows and one of the highlights of their recent album Courting Strong, out now on Fortuna POP!

 

Hailing from Pity Me near Durham, vegan straight-edgers MARTHA will be releasing their new album ‘Courting Strong’ on 26 May via Fortuna POP! Providing energetic, impassioned pop punk, Martha are informed by 90s indie rock and Scandinavian anarcho noir. The album, produced by MJ from Hookworms, is laden with harmonies and interchangeable vocals whilst still retaining the energy and excitement of the band’s live shows.

 

Formed in 2011 by siblings Naomi (bass, vocals) and Nathan Griffin (drums, vocals) with J. Cairns "JC" (guitar, vocals) and Daniel Ellis (guitar, vocals), Martha have fast become a staple of the UK DIY pop scene. There are many competing stories as to the origin of their band name but it’s a fact that the very last passenger pigeon on earth was called Martha. When she died, the whole species became extinct.

Martha - Present, Tense

Released on October 28, 2014.

Nite Fields - You I Never Knew

<p>From Delayed Summer / PRE-ORDER limited tape ed <a href="http://blwbck.tumblr.com/post/13788276952" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://blwbck.tumblr.com/post/13788276952</a>
music by Romain Barbot &amp; Tony Llados
<p>Life seems to happen always at present time. We move on across the years challenged by the next day, living by the hour. Sometimes, we go back to places in our memory that resemble past remembrances, important moments or just the illusion of important moments, spotlight in our mind. Youth is one of such spotlights, it is a milestone on our development as individuals, accumulating experiences, failures and successes.
Looking back at these memories we add phantasy to such moments. Sometimes because they are blurred in our memory and we don’t know exactly how they occurred. Other times we don’t need them to be truthful but more like a mirror to our needs. Delayed Summer is like one of these novels written on the subject of youth past memories.
Coming back to the house where he grew up Romain Barbot felt the urgency of recreating is memories, smells, images, souvenirs of a long gone period. Delayed Summer is born from this impulse, and much like an urge it was automatically pursued in the shape of jam sessions with a couple of friends and minimal resources.
Delayed Summer is trespassed with an energy filtered by years that passed by. Among the instruments, the guitar can be heard more loudly, reflecting the electricity that is youth. Using a couple of webcam microphones to capture this instants a lo-fi characteristic is achieved, that suggests the blurring of memories that exist in Romain Barbot’s mind.

Pole (jam XIV)

Taken from their self-titled debut album, out June 14, 2019 on Slumberland Records.
Preorder here: https://smarturl.it/jeanines

Brooklyn's Jeanines specialize in ultra-short bursts of energetic but melancholy minor-key pop. With influences that run deep into the most crucial tributaries of DIY pop — Messthethics, the Television Personalities, Marine Girls, early Pastels, Dolly Mixture — they've crafted a style that is as individual as it is just plain pleasurable. Alicia Jeanine's pure, unaffected voice muses wistfully on the illusions of time, while My Teenage Stride/Mick Trouble mastermind Jed Smith's frantic Motown-esque drumming and inventive bass playing provide a thrilling rhythmic foundation.

"Winter In The Dark" and a cover of The Siddeleys' "Falling Off Of My Feet Again" provide great insight into what Jeanines are about. 60s-meet-80s melodies combine with timeless guitar jangle in a way that recalls everything from The Aislers Set and Saturday Looks Good To Me to more recent DIY pop groups like Parsnip and Chook Race. Album opener "Either Way," "Hits The Bone" and "Where We Go" hearken back to some of the most intriguing bands of the C86/C88 era, when bands like Jesse Garon & The Desperadoes crafted perfect pop gems enlivened by the inspiration of punk. Songs like "Where I Stand," "Too Late" and "In This House" are windows into Alicia's lyrical concerns of mortality and the passage of time. The marriage of the minor-key melodies and melancholic lyrics is powerful and make Alicia's songs all the more memorable, especially so on songs like "No Home," with its echoes of girl harmony post-punk groups like Grass Widow and Household.

Clearly, with 16 great songs included, there is a lot at work here on this standout debut album. Jeanines have been compared to such cult pop icons as Dear Nora, Black Tambourine, and more recent acts like Veronica Falls and Girl Ray, but their dark, modal melodies and pensive, philosophical lyrics, along with Smith's versatile but ever-economical musicality, ensure them a place of their own in today's crowded but boisterously healthy DIY pop scene.

Jeanines - Either Way

The Other Side Of Midnight

#SCFIRST

'Swear Jar' is the first single from our forthcoming EP 'Zero' out Friday 25 October via Dot Dash / Remote Control

'Swear Jar' is an optimistic tune about the dumb stuff we fight about in the heat of the moment, and having the patience to find out what the other person really means without judging them on the language they used initially, on the premise that hindsight is the mother of foresight.

Lyrics:

it helps to swear if you're hurt,
to scream, and kick, and curse
damning the hypocrites and liars
for what they call friendly fire
when it seemes no suture can make it better
just remember...
it helps to swear if you're hurt

even when you've done nothing wrong
the resentment is just as strong
don't punish yourself for painting fiction
for there's more to be seen in a narrowing vision

if you swear I can tell something's beating you down
we'll dig you out from your underground
it's less like a light switch and more like a dimmer
while the anger is fading, the room will get brighter
same with your language, I understand
there's a spectrum between words like fuck and damn
there's a spectrum between words like fuck and damn
there's a spectrum between words like fuck and damn
so remember...
it helps to swear if you're hurt

Lyrics:

Five years
and I’m clear
I don’t remember anything I did that year
But I think fondly
of being unhappy

Why do lilies
smell so sweetly

Woozy, wounded, lovesick and sappy
So why am I
Nostalgic for a time when I wasn’t even happy

Useless teenage blues
I don’t miss you

Ten years
And I fear
I’m nowhere I wanted to be
I got student loans and a stupid career

But I miss hurting
Or feeling fucking anything

Clutching at coals, flagellating my back
Burned me and turned my heart black 
So how come
I still want that

Woozy, wounded, lovesick and sappy
So why am I
Nostalgic for a time when I wasn’t even happy

Fooly Cooly

‘It is true that Jaque M–– left Lisbon by boat in the winter of 1759, two hundred years to the day before the city opened its first metro system, and that he sailed with intentions of greatness and returned in disgrace, never speaking about why, or why he spent the rest of his life recreating scale-models of the buildings he claimed to have seen on the Arabian coast.’
