“I say you the fuckin best you the fuckin best you the fuckin best you the fuckin best you the fuckin best i eva had best i eva had best i eva had I say you the fuckin..” Genius
I’ve been botally digging the work of Alan Palomo lately. First his excellent song ‘No Reasons‘ under his VEGA moniker. Now I found out he’s the one (well, him and a girl) behind the boards of Neon Indian. Wonder if he means Indian as in Gandhi or Indian as in Cherokee. Would be a bit weird to see a Neon Gandhi eh?! BANG. Their website says of them,
“…Neon Indian delivers equal parts synthetic nostalgia, dreampop lullabies, and grinding guitar noise to create something eerier than the sum of its parts…”
I wouldn’t even know where to start. It sounds quite vintage but really new at the same time, like someone’s just dusted down an old Cocteau Twins record, taken away lovely Liz Fraser’s pipes, added a bit of Daft Punk, then mixed it with Air France/Aeroplane/That crew etc. Probably a really bad description but I don’t give a fuck. They don’t pay me to do this ken.
The internet is a fast moving beast, so the streaming MP3s that are posted may not work after a while due to them being taken down. And since I can't be arsed uploading them all again it's tough shite. I'll always post a link to a downloadable MP3 though. As always, if you like what you hear - away and buy it eh!
p.s. if I've put up a song you'd rather not see here then let me know, you can email me here
