Miaoux Miaoux, who I have featured here before, is set to return with an excellent new single ‘Hey Sound’/’Cloud Computer’ on May 23rd.

If you weren’t paying attention before, it’s great stuff and you are doing yourselves as disservice by not listening. Definitely for people who enjoy both Unicorn Kid and our very own X-Lion Tamer

I’ve long been very supportive of what Matthew Young has been doing with his Song, By Toad blog and label -and indeed the favour has often been re

turned.

Amongst his latest signings are King Post Kitsch, who (his name’s Charlie, it would appear) his debut single next week. It’s a four-track single entitled ‘Don’t You Touch My Fucking Honeytone’ which is rather ace. I think it’s what the Hives might soundlike if they ingested lots of fizzy pop and hung out in Glasgow and tried to blend in, aftre losing their suits.

Now, I like to think I’ve made it blatantly bloody obvious how good the stuff on the Toad label is (last year’s Top 50 albums on here had several entries from the label), but if you haven’t been paying attention, here is a sampler Matthew has made available:

Crystal Stilts -‘In Love With Oblivion’ (Fortuna Pop)

When Crystal Stilts released their debut album, Alight With Night, a couple of years ago, there were doubtless those who saw them as being yet another US band in love with the c86 sound. There were, after all, a lot

of them around. Yet it was clear, if you paid more than half an ear to them, that there was more to them than just jangling guitars. and so it continues on their sophomore album.

With the first play, before the album has even finished, I know that this is an album that I am going to want to play again and again. I may have been sent this album to re

view; but it sounds so good to these ears, I would indeed be prepared to spend my hard-earned wages on it, in order to listen to the psych rock-post punk- garage rock meets the Doors and Joy Division sound therein.

There are, indeed, quite a few bands who should be listening to this and taking notes. Mazes: it is just not sufficient to have cool record collections and regurgitate them, you actually have to go somewhere with it. Pains Of Being Pure At Heart: do not cave into pressure to recapture another era that a few people a

There’s so much to r

ecommend here: ‘Alien Rivers’ and ‘Blood Barons’ are dark, psychedelic workouts, while on the other hand, tracks like ‘Silver Sun’ and ‘Half a Moon’ are more of the jangly variety.

Way ahead of much of the competition, a very welcome return.

the These Resurrections EP by Steve Adey (an Edinburgh based artist, no less) is something that goes against the grain of David Gray wannabes, and instead shows that fragile does not need to mean wimpy, and acoustic does not mean half-assed. he will be releasing a new LP later on this year, but for now, this EP is a gorgeous treat.

Last Friday’s covers seeemd to go down well, so I thought I’d post some more.

First up, two from The Breeders. ‘Happiness Is A Warm Gun’ is taken from their debut album Pod, and originally appeared on The Beatles’ The Beatles (AKA The White Album). The second was by the Who, and appeared on the

Breeders’ Safari EP. Some people have wondered if this was in reference to the fact that Kim Deal’s then other band The Pixies were about to call it a day.

The Breeders -‘Happiness Is A Warm Gun (The Beatles cover).’ mp3

The Breeders -‘So Sad About Us (The Who cover).’ mp3

Sticking with a 4AD related act, Belly’s cover of ‘Trust In Me’ appeared on the single of ‘Feed The Tree.’ The song originally appeared in The Jungle Book, and Siouxsie and the Banshees also did a version on their cover versions album Through The Looking Glass.

Belly -‘Trust In Me.’ mp3

A final 4AD track for today; both the Jesus and Mary Chain’s Automatic and the Pixies’ Trompe Le Monde are underrated albums in those bands’ respective and highly respectable back catalogues. ‘Head On’ by the Mary Chain was covered by the Pixies on their final (so far) studio album in 1991:

Pixies -‘Head On (Jesus and Mary Chain cover).’ mp3

The Cardigans covered a number of Black Sabbath songs in their own style. Here they take on an Ozzy Osbourne solo track:

The debut album from Anita Blay is one of the releases I have been

most looking forward to this year. Shortly before Christmas at the end of last year, I received a promo of five tracks from this twelve track album, and I was certainly won over. Now that the final, finished product has arrived,

it has been well worth the wait overall.

Ms. Blay’s music is a clever and infectious mix of high quality pop, fifty years of soul and R’n’B and generous lashings of indie. the three singles released so far from this album -‘One Eye Closed,’ ‘Asthma Attack’ and the particularly excellent ‘Hol

Perhaps there are a couple of duff tracks (‘Mexico’ and ‘Hoarder(The House That Heartbreak Built)’) but this is a strong debut. In a landscape littered with faux-folk and meat’n’two veg indie bands, Ms. Blay

Gang Gang Dance -‘Eye Contact.’ (4AD)

OK, it’s probably stating the blindingly obvious to state that this record seems to be very much the critical and cool hit of the moment. Thing is, it is an absolutely brilliant record. It deserves every bit of praise that has been passed its’ way and more.

Eye Contact is the New York-based band’s fifth album. Last time round, on Saint Dymphna, they collaborated with a the unknown rapper from the UK called Tinchy Stryder. How times change. There’s many acts out there that would like to give the impression that they are genre-defying; Gang Gang Dance genuinely are.

Over the course of a ten track, forty seven minute album, GGD frequently have more ideas in one song than many will manage over an entire album. And there’s more going on over the course of an entire album than many will manage over their entire careers. Thing is, whilst it can seem like a helluva lot to take in in one go…you don’t need to. Repeated visits reveal just how brilliant this album is. There’s hints of warped electronica meeting the Neptunes, arty indie, nineties post-rave chill and a punk as anything attitude bringing it all together.

Astonishing album opener ‘Glass Jar’ – which is eleevn minutes long -kciks off proceedings and is one of the best of a pretty impressive bunch of tracks. But as well as single ‘MindKilla’, there’s also the very impressive ‘Adult Goth’ (which when you hear it you will realise is exactly what it is, somehow! Eye Contact also includes guest appearances from Alexis Taylor of Hot Chip on ‘Romance Layers’ and Tim Koh of Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti. In many ways these two acts are fellow travellers, or at least they would be if it wasn’t for the fact that gang Gang dance seem to be so far out there -and yet, utterly accessible, too.

This is a truly astonishing album.

Eye Contact is released on May 9 on 4AD.

‘The best music you ever heard in you(sic) life’ said the subject in the email.

‘Yeah right,’ I muttered and decided to give the video thirty seconds. I hear that so and so is the best so often it’s beyond being a turnoff.

And yet…Tiger Love may not be the best thing I have ever heard in my life…but I really like the song and the delightfully OTT video. It’s fun, it’s upbeat and it’s going to annoy po-faced idiots. That’s got to
