Moon Types at Performer

Well, it ain’t ABBA, but Stockholm has finally produced something else equally amazing for my earballs. Kicking off with Bell and Sebastian-like ’verby vocals and trumpet, “Know The Reason” is a cute, jangly stab at pop immortality. You know how sometimes you just hear that one song – that ONE melody that cuts you to… Continue reading Moon Types at Performer

Moon Types at POP! Stereo

The Moon Types single Know The Reason is a perfect slice of indie pop neatly served on a 7” platter. Beaming with west coast vibes, radiant horns, and mellow melodies this little record is a bit of heaven via Sweden. The siblings Klein (Jesper and Josefin) know their way around a pop song and manipulate… Continue reading Moon Types at POP! Stereo

Lunchbox at POP! Stereo

I’m not 100% sure Lunchbox’s single Smash Hits does indeed contain any actual smash hits but what it does contain is a shambolic romp through the indie rock and pop canon. Frenetic, noisy, and a bit chaotic Smash Hits is an energetic and noisy amalgamation of sloppy guitars, geeky vocals, and hooks the size of… Continue reading Lunchbox at POP! Stereo

Moon Types at Sounds XP

Moon Types are from Sweden and their new ‘Know The Reason’ EP is bright, sparkling Scandipop that pulses with anticipation. “If you think the time is now, you couldn’t be more right” stresses the title (and standout) track on the EP while ‘Do It All Over Again’ charms with its jangly guitars and slurred vocals… Continue reading Moon Types at Sounds XP

Lunchbox at In Love With These Times, In Spite of These Times

Lunchbox “Paws of Destiny” Oh me, oh my. As we remarked of their comeback album on Jigsaw Records last year, Lunchbox really have a way with tunes. Melodies simply abound: little ones, big ones, huge ones, snaking in and out everywhere. And on their ace six-track “Smash Hits” EP, also on Jigsaw, they’ve upped their… Continue reading Lunchbox at In Love With These Times, In Spite of These Times

Lunchbox at Maximum Rock and Roll

I could easily write this off as pure sugary pop, but that would be a massive fail on my part. Sure, this record is drenched in the sweet stuff, but it’s also pretty rocking. Sorta like an even sweeter Superchunk, but abrasive enough to feel quite at home in whatever shitty bar or living room… Continue reading Lunchbox at Maximum Rock and Roll
