Imagine a female version of Arctic Monkeys... or The Hives (since they're also Swedish).

Another one from Those Dancing Days... less garage, more poppish.

Still digging Those Dancing Days (download Fuckaria for free at http://www.thosedancingdays.com), but I'm also discovering Josh Ritter...



Great video too.

Still psyching myself up for the Britpop revival:

Well, at least it's good deal more fun than the Beady Eye stuff I've heard so far... I'll leave it to the other forum wits to insert the obvious, labored Austin Powers joke here.

That was from the original Britpop era. Playing this music will help to hurry the revival!

Have you read Phonogram, Linda? It's basically a love letter to Britpop fans.

Hadn't heard of it before. I see it's published by Image, so I'm inclined to pass. Eric Stephenson's work is so pretentious and phony, I can't imagine that the books he approves about similar subjects would be much different.

Katy B.'s "Louder". I downloaded the 2 song EP at Amazon's MP3 store as there's no physical copy available. Hope she puts out a full length soon. Love her singing and she is a cutie.

Simply magical:

Should auld acquaintance be forgot:

Great song, Linda, is this available on cd or vinyl?

It was a 7-inch vinyl single in its day:

But I don't believe that The New Math's early singles have ever been put on CD, which is a great shame. They were a wonderful band whom I saw live several times. They had loads of terrific songs which could have made for a fantastic debut album at the time, but it never happened. (Their later releases were some sort of weird sci-fi/horror music ... not nearly as good, IMLO.)

Now, back to trying to bring the Britpop revival into being:

Toss up between Laid by New Medicine and Tighten Up by The Black keys. Probably because I heard both songs while driving, today.

Thanks, Linda!

I'm enjoying this song from samples I heard & plan to pick up the cd from Amazon.

Great delivery on "The Hope of '44" line...

Pick up issue 1 at least and see if it grabs you.

Okay, I'll pick it up on your recommendation.

Greatest band ever? No, but they were so close:
