so i just saw this on oink and got it, because it's some new band and i song i had sampled a while ago was pretty good. basically they sounds kinda like arcade fire instrumentally, (violins and xylophones incorporated into an indie rock/pop mix)...but the melodies of the singers are pretty nice. its worth a listen i guess, im just kinda sampling the album right now but i like it. some long instrumental jams. the album is called "wolves" though, and im tired of that fucking animal being referenced in all things indie.

http://oink.me.uk/details.php?id=374996

From a sweetjanemusic review (translation is a little weird)...

My Latest Novel are family of five, in this country still very unknown volume from Scotland, which used up themselves in the broadest sense the Indiepop. An exact musical affiliation cannot be made, since My Latest Novel avail themselves of a multiplicity at style characteristics.

Folk plays just as large role with the Scots as the slope to the unpopular skirt. Unpopularly in particular, because with love for the detail one works here. The Songs is multilayered, by the jungle at pleasant noise window blind arrives one only with consideration and a quantity of patience, is a multiplicity at sounds to be noticed nevertheless, one is already no longer used to which in the age of the Schnelllebigkeit particularly in the music.

Including violins and xylophonen and a Rhythmik reminding of Country to injustice not fallen in love, warmherzige Indiepop Balladen, are created which are by far more convincing in the long term as with the first Gehgversuchen.

My Latest Novel call in with their music without to ask the time, which they need to be able to use in order unfold the magic of its Songs and for their advantage. Because of evenly this magic My Latest Novel were not loaded last also from the Pixies directly into the interlude to their concert into Edinburgh.

Perhaps "Wolves" supplies the also straight melodies, which we would have wished ourselves of the Pavement in their conclusion phase. My Latest Novel already reach, are only less easily accessible their format. Songs like "Pretty in A panic", "The Hope edition", the first single "Sister Sneaker Sister Soul" and not least "boron cathedral Killed Another" witness to an enormous depth of musical Fragilitaet and in England the Scots are abgefeiert just in this moment already as the next Arcade Fire.

With "Learning Lego" one should not bake thus by any means all too small rolls.


my guess is that they'll be one of the big new bands on the music sites this year.

"Wolf" or "Wolves" seems to be the most popular indie word of 2005.




Just sayin'.

I posted about these guys half a year ago -- very few took notice then. I like them quite a bit and believe they're gonna be at SXSW.

I saw your link to their site, but the music links on their site weren't working and I really wanted the torrent file.
