A throwback sound akin to The Hives?

I'm rolling with it.

China Rats - To Be Like I. iTunes.

So these guys have gotten pretty big huh? It would have looked a lot cooler if I posted this last year when I bought it.

Sleaford Mods - Jobseeker. iTunes.

Unsure

After twenty-plus years I still don't know if I actually like The Mommyheads.

The Mommyheads - Finest Specimens. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

I tend to give anything on Too Pure a chance. This was a winner.

Department M - Too Pure Singles Club Double A-Side. iTunes

Bastille got pretty big huh?

I'm so behind on posting my purchases I think they peaked and dropped off before I even got to write this.

Bastille - Bad Blood. amazon.com. New.

French. It sounds cooler than I'll ever be. Retro yet modern. So good.

La Femme - Hypsoline. iTunes.

A-B-B-A

Yes. I love ABBA. No shame involved. And not ironically.

ABBA - Arrival. amazon.com. Used.

Today this old man learned a new thing.

"B-Town"

Apparently, a number of the newer British bands I've been enjoying over the past year or two are coming out of this scene. Peace. JAWS. And Swim Deep.

All are fantastic.

Swim Deep - Where the Heaven Are We. amazon.com. New.

King Krule isn't bad. But I really don't get the hype.

He kind of bores me. And I like a lot of "boring" music.

Maybe I'm missing something. Maybe more listens are in order.

King Krule. iTunes.

Solid rock. Welsh I believe. Worth checking out.

(Holy shit I'm behind on posts. By the time I'm getting to these they aren't so "new" anymore.)

Trampolene - Under the Strobe Light. iTunes.
