    Impaled Peach – Physical Copies IMPALED PEACH, RELEASES | Comments Off
    Just a quick note to say that you can now purchase a CD copy of 'Impaled Peach' here: impaledpeach.bandcamp.com/releases Here's what Ed has to say about it - "This is a CD that looks like a peach. Every time you stick it on a CD nub, you'll be impaling a peach! It comes in a hand-assembled cardboardy slipcase that is 100% probably made from trees, so you know it's good! It also has a hi-res print of the album cover glued on the front, which is good because that's exactly where the album cover belongs. But wait, there's more: it has a ...

    Impaled Peach – Impaled Peach IMPALED PEACH, QUIXODELIC RECORDS, RELEASES, REVIEWS | Comments Off
    Download: quixodelic.com/site/impaled-peach/ It's been a while so you know this must be important. Remember Impaled Peach and his 'Helicobbler' EP from early last year? 8 songs of melancholy pop goodness, oddities thrown together in the shape of a record, completely unplanned and yet brilliantly coherent.

Design is the key to describing what Ed (the guy behind the music) does. Songs are ...

    The Fig Mints COZY HOME, FIG MINTS, RELEASES | (1)
    So that's where he's been! Having suitably blown everyone away with last year's whirlwind 'Exercises In Futility', Bobby Rogan and THE Fig Mints are back with not one, but TWO records - 'Say Okay' and 'Songs For My Friends & Those Girls'. 'Say Okay' has been at the mastering stage for quite some time, so I've already had a sneak preview and a review will follow. Needless to say it is very good and a little bit different from previous Figs. 'Songs...' on the other hand has fallen from the sky as unexpectedly as a tiny meteor and is available for ...

    Syd Lane – Solstice RELEASES, REVIEWS, SYD LANE | (1)
    Free download: sydlane.bandcamp.com/album/solstice Syd Lane has done it again. While some songwriters furiously vomit up hours of garbage in the hope that something, anything redeemable might happen, and others sit chewing on their guitar strings waiting for inspiration, she has been quietly amassing an increasingly awesome body of songs, honing and refining them until, like golden apples they are ready to drop from the tree. 'Solstice' is the second apple of a whirlwind year but three months old. Already we have seen the utterly compelling 'Hypatia' make all the right ripples in the deep end of the pond. Everyone I know who has ...
