Chocolate, gooey loveliness, this week’s LEG GUITAR v TUCKSHOP featuring The Shutes, Swim Deep and Japandroids …

Swim Deep – ‘King City’

Tom Jenkins — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 21:24:36 +0000

Earnest, heart-wrenching indie from this Birmingham trio, reminiscent of early Bloc Party before they went, you know, kinda rubbish. Singer Austin does seem a little obsessed with Warpaint bassist Jenny Lee Lindberg however (‘F*ck your romance/I wanna pretend Jenny Lee Lindberg is my girlfriend’). Watch out Jenny.

The Shutes – ‘Echo of Love’

Tom Jenkins — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 13:24:14 +0000

Is this the best (only) band to emerge from the lush, green pastures of the Isle of Wight since The Bees? On the basis of Echo of Love, the title track of their new EP out April 2nd on Cross Keys Recordings, the answer is a resounding yes. Delicate, note-bending, pastoral guitar-pop.

Sleep Party People – ‘Chin’

The first single to be taken from We Were Drifting on a Sad Song, the new album from these Danish ‘dream-gazers’ out April 9th on Blood and Biscuits.
