This is, as far as I know, the debut 7″ single by Moon Types: a cool Swedish jangle pop band. Opening the A-side is the titular song: a very cool indie-pop song with some neat muted trumpet. In the lyric, the singer tells his ex that he knows the reason why he’s been dumped. It’s… Continue reading Moon Types at Whisperin and Hollerin

Lunchbox at Fear and Loathing
Seattle’s Jigsaw Records has begun an onslaught of catchy and idiosyncratic 7″ vinyl and full-length releases. I just got hip to their stylish and wayward celebration of independent music. With an ethos similar to early indie upstarts Beserkley and Stiff Records, the label is crossing boundaries while bringing back focus and fun to the scattered… Continue reading Lunchbox at Fear and Loathing
Lunchbox at Austin Town Hall
Lunchbox returned last year with the most excellent, Lunchbox Loves You. It seems to have ignited a fire beneath the band, as they’re already back with a brand new EP for your ears. It reminds me of taking the foundations of jangling indiepop and fusing it with the work of earlyWeezer (when everyone liked them,… Continue reading Lunchbox at Austin Town Hall
Lunchbox at Big Takeover
Singer/guitarist Tim Brown and bassistDonna McKean have been perfecting their sugary rock recipe as Lunchbox on and off for over 15 years now. Last year, the duo released Lunchbox Loves You to renewed acclaim. Their latest is a six song appetizer of even stickier, rot-your-teeth-out power pop.

Moon Types are from Stockholm and, with the three tracks on their “Know The Reason” single, they show a certain mastery… Continue reading Moon Types at Bluesbunny
Moon Types at When You Motor Away

The latest to please our ears is Stockholm’s Moon Types, a quartet skilled in the art of jangling indie pop and power pop, with an interesting hint of country in the arrangement. If you… Continue reading Moon Types at When You Motor Away
Bob Collins and the Full Nelson at Indiepop Love
The Dentist’s were a legendary band back in the 80s with their sweet pop sound harking back to the 1960s and carrying a slightly psychedelic vibe. Bob Collins frontman for the Dentists and numerous other projects the last few years has finally come out with a Solo Album. Some of the songs feature Collins with… Continue reading Bob Collins and the Full Nelson at Indiepop Love
Bob Collins and the Full Nelson at Austin Town Hall
It’s been a really great resurgence month for The Dentists, with two of the band’s songwriters unleashing new tunes/albums. First there was Treasures of Mexico, and now we’ve got Bob Collins and the Full Nelson. He’s releasing his new record, Telescopic Victory Kiss, and though slightly different, it hits as beautifully as one would expect.… Continue reading Bob Collins and the Full Nelson at Austin Town Hall
