Was checking out Beach Fossils at Sala Rossa last week, there I met my girlfriend’s brother and we discussed the genius of Deerhunter’s Bradford Cox over cigarettes. Cox never fails to disappoint me and the b-side from Deerhunter’s Record Store Day single ‘Memory Boy’ is pure fucking heaven. I haven’t heard this kind of jingling pop from Bradford in a while and it’s refreshing. Dig it.

Tonstartssbandht are a total treasure for me. I adore their musical range. I adore their hypnotic lives shows. I am a midnight fucking cobra. The brothers Andy and Edwin White are currently in Russia with their new cassette Hymns which you can listen to below. Take notice of the reworked “Black Country” entitled “New Black Fever”, it’s a droning jam that will take your breath away.

Back in 2009 I spent a majority of the summer plugged into Ganglians‘ Monster Head Room. A great record full of some of the best psyche-folk I’ve heard.  Now in 2011 the Sacramento band is releasing Still Living [via Lefse] August 23rd and to sample here is a great jangly jam entitled ‘Jungle’. The track doesn’t stray far their ‘09 sound and that doesn’t bother me (or should it you) in the slightest.
