Scene ‘Hear No Lies’

May 23, 2012 by Lachy 0 Comments

Scene are a brand new band from the UK, and they’ve just released their very first song online, Hear No Lies, which has been written, recorded, and produced totally independently. In other words, they’re exactly the type of band I envisioned promoting when I first started this blog. It also doesn’t hurt that the song is pretty fantastic: it has a real DIY vibe but also sounds quite polished, and feels very unique.

Tigertown are a brand new discovery of mine, but I’m already really enjoying the Sydney six-piece band’s music, especially their latest single ‘Lions And Witches’, which is taken off their upcoming second EP.

Everyone is digging Foxes at the moment, and it’s for a very good reason. She’s been putting out some fantastic tracks lately, exhibiting a real talent for straight-up catchy pop music and exhilarating, grandiose vocals à la Mariana And The Diamonds and Florence And The Machine. I guess she just needs a backing band so she can add an ‘And’ to her name. Anyway, Foxes is releasing a new EP imminently, ‘Warrior EP’ to be exact, and you can listen to the brilliant title track below.

I do love me some The xx, even if their lack of capitalization drives me crazy whenever I post about them. Rumours have been circulating about a new album from the band for a while now, and these rumours were recently confirmed by the band on Facebook, who posted a photo of themselves recording new material. It looks like they’ve been trialing some of these songs live, and thanks to the website ‘MTHR FNKR’ you can now listen to not one but five new The xx songs played live.

If you’re a regular reader of this blog then you know that I sometimes get obsessed with songs for no particular reason, only to forget about them a couple of weeks later. I’m currently in the blissful first phase of this process with Django Django’s song ’Default’, taken from their 2012 self-titled album. I may be a bit behind the hype curve with this track, which has been floating around online for ages, but I don’t really care: it’s a fantastically fun track and if you haven’t heard it yet then you’re in for a treat.
