I’d idly flicked through my 7digital mailing to discover three tracks that they were giving away. I rather like these three and wondered what you thought…
First up, I Monster. I always associate these guys with that rather wonderful ‘Daydream In Blue’ which is now eight years ago. This sounds like Blur jamming with Beck in the late sixties…
I Monster -‘She’s Giving Me the Eye.’ mp3 (from their new album A Dense Swarm Of Ancient Stars.
Next, Black Lips are one of those blogger-appropved bands 9as opposed to Blogger-approved bands) that I always feel like I should be more into. This is endearingly shambolic…like the Vaselines jamming with the Motown house band.
Black Lips -‘I’ll Be With You.’ mp3(from their new album 200 Million Thousand)
I know next to nothing about the Coronas, and guiltily, I assumed they were going to sound like another indie-by-numbers band. Actually, on the evidence of this track at any rate, there’s a little more to them…
The Coronas -‘Take Your Lies.’ mp3
Hope you have a good weekend…
