Indiepop Joy from Skittle Alley

10523116_10152579979492091_287849880994909169_nGotta throw a nod towards my friend at IPSMYL for pointing out this great new track from Skittle Alley; it’s made my day just to know this track is out there.  I’ve written about the French group before, and they’ve lived up, and perhaps surpassed my expectations with this tune, even if it’s labeled as a demo.  I honestly don’t think it needs much more…the vocals have that indiepop softness, the guitars jangle in all the right places and there’s an overall emotional appeal that makes the song worth repeating over and over again.  Can’t wait to see what’s next from these guys.

Brand New Song from Dream Boys

10624604_757477180962452_2560762181686648683_nI owe the entire enjoyment of this song to our friend over at IPSML; he pointed me in the right direction (as always), though I’ll admit I’ve been aware of the Dream Boys…just not this brand new single.  There’s something in the spritely jangle that makes my heart swell; you’ll even find a quieting coat of atmospherics draped across the shoulders of the vocals on the back end of the song.  It’s off a brand new 7″, but that reminds me that if you didn’t catch their last self-titled LP you’re a dummy and I hate you (I’m being childish, but it’s that good!).  Just try to ignore this wonderful song.
