I know, I've joked before about S Club 8, aka S Club Juniors, a spinoff of the teen group S Club 7, as confusing as heck when it comes to the more serious, respectable, band called Club 8.…

CLUB 8
club-8.org
I love anything from Labrador Records, the Swedish indie label that made waves by distributing their music on Sweden's The Pirate Bay.
Anyway, I won't spend too much time talking about Club 8, as we've previously written about the duo (Karolina Komstedt from the band Poprace and Johan Angergård from Acid House Kings). Their new single is called "Stop Taking My Time", which just came out March 26th, 2013. You can hear on labrador.se.
Note that the single is taken from Club 8's eighth album called Above the City. Labrador will be releasing the record on May 21st, 2013.
In other Club 8 news, in case you missed it, check out their Peta/animal rights video for "Kill Kill Kill" on youtube. The video was directed by Djurens Rätt / Peter Nilsson and Club 8.

ANGELICA'S ELEGY
facebook.com
Norwegian indie band Angelica's Elegy just released their debut album called Gold Celeste last month (March 1st, 2013) via Riot Factory / Sad Songs for Happy People. If you were wondering what an elegy is, it's basically a funeral poem or song for the dead, like a lament.
You can sample some songs over at Soundcloud.
Anyway, the band is described as pop songs with experimental and melodic lo-fi filters, but "filled with angelic vocals". If you like what you heard, the record is available in a 12" gatefold vinyl with artwork by Benedikte Olsen.

| SIGUR RÓS sigur-ros.co.uk This Icelandic band, Sigur Rós, is currently on tour (they are playing Minneapolis tonight). Since we can't afford to see them, the next best thing is to check out their Record Store Day release for Vitamin String Quartet Performs Sigur Rós - available for purchase on Saturday, April 20th 2013, via your local Record Stores. Vitamin String Quartet aren't actually from Iceland, they're based out of Los Angeles. For more information on the band, check out vitaminstringquartet.com | BLIND ARCHITECT facebook.com No information given about this band. All I know is that they're from Finland. Blind Architect's debut album, We Felt Mountains is coming out April 5th, 2013 (unless I'm misreading the dates) on Lionheart Records. Upcoming shows: 04/05 Korjaamo, Helsinki 04/12 Bar 15, Seinäjoki |
