Striking Gold

Blimey it's been a fair old while since my last entry...

Just a couple of wee recommendations while I'm here dipping my toe:

The new Golden Silvers album, 'True Romance' is bloody brilliant.

The phrase 'effortlessly catchy' gets banded about tons these days, but this lot have come up with ten modern pop belters, the majority of them ripe and ready for the disco and destined for wider adulation. They've come a long way since their early Glastonbury appearance, and this record is another gem in the XL Recordings ranks.

The latest offering from Chiswick's ever-trusty Blue Flowers Records has also taken myPod by storm in the past couple of weeks or so. The song in question is Goldhawks' track 'Where In The World'.

If you're not hooked by the time the pounding piano/bass drum intro has elapsed I'll be mightily surprised. An indie rock anthem rich in depth, melody and emotion. Love it.
