This Week’s IndieStore UK Picks
The Cadets ‘Songbook’
Like the boys say, when you come from Penge in south east London the only way is indeed up. By the sounds of it, this lot are well on their way. This is corking stuff, the highlight of which is the beautiful ‘Songbook’ – a rich, swollen tune that is almost fit to burst. And anyone who lists Ben Folds as an influence has a pair of ears on them.
Strange Idols ‘It’s No Fun’
Indie pop like it was supposed to be – fizzy songwriting, jangling guitars, belting tunes. Sounding like Sophie Ellis Bextor fronting Belle & Sebastian with a healthy dose of Altered Images in the mix (very much okay by us), ‘It’s No Fun’ is actually more fun that a wet Monday should allow.
Messengers ‘Menina’
Production duo Darren Moss and Kevin Beadle have quite a pedigree with support from Mr Scruff and Giles Peterson to name but two. House with a twist, there’s enough invention to keep the most discerning dancing feet happy. Soul II Soul for the 21st Century?
