Perfect three-minute pop songs with playful 60s influences, combining the best bits of the Monkees and the Velvet Underground. The Loves are favourites of John Peel and recorded four sessions with him before 2004. Their 2007 album "Technicolour" was much acclaimed, even becoming the Sunday Times’ LP of the Week. The Cardiff band are now returning with a new album, ‘Three’, which will be released by Fortuna Pop! in April 2009.
Pocketbooks are an indiepop band from London, combining melodic boy/girl harmonies, spiralling guitars and delicate piano lines. Simon Armitage describes them as “pure snowshaker pop, and more dressing-table than kitchen sink”. Their debut album, ‘Flight Paths’, will be released by How Does It Feel To Be Loved? in June 2009. A free song from the album is available to download here: Statistics: Posted by Andy... — Thu Mar 26, 2009 11:49 pm
