Post for the leftovers.

Here's some records I've picked up over these last months and never gotten around to make proper posts for. Shame on me!

Quite easily the best Swedish pop album (alongside Lykke Li) of the year, this far.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Belong

In which TPoBPaH indulge their inner Siamese Dream fandom. Good indie.

Remember Just Dance? Before Bad Romance, before Pokerface, before all the crazy interviews, outfits, stage shows? Seems like so long ago now, doesn't it?

Some cheap 7"' picked up second hand. XTC, Kate Bush and a weird Japanese band that sounds a tad like Beach Boys!

Perhaps the best looking album cover of 2011, thus far? Good too, Raveonettes embrace their inner goth mixed with the usual 50/60s rock and Jesus & Mary Chain influences.
