Sarandon - Kill Twee Pop!

2008-05-03 13:39:00 by Trev Lostmusic in Indie MP3 - Keeping C86 Alive!
...Twee Pop!'. That's going to polarise opinion, before most people have even heard a note. It will have some of current indiepop fans on the defensive from the off. Whereas, it instantly gets this old codgers seal of approval. All before hearing a note from the LP as well. We're a judgemental lot, aren't we? As the band try and explain the...

...twee-centric Brit label is giving away their twee for free , as in lots and lots of free music. Hell, even if you think twee pop is way too, well, twee , it is free. And if that doesn't fill the hole, click here for more free twee, in the form of a bunch of weird covers by twee-masters Belle and Sebastian More time travels, with a look back...

...Twee as Fuck night at The Macbeth in swanky Shoreditch. They were very good. I also picked up their debut LP at the same time 'Last Tango In Motherwell'. Which left me a little confused. As it didn't spark the same thrill as seeing the band live As it happens that LP was recorded and released back in 2006 - and it seems the band have got a...

MOODY BLUES, THE - Seventh Sojourn (1972)

2008-12-03 20:31:34 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...twee gently orchestrated tune that is highlighted by the band's trademark harmonies in the chorus, while "I'm Just a Singer in a Rock and Roll Band" is an incessant rocker that hints at some of the pressures and disillusionment that Lodge and his bandmates may have been experiencing. It seems clear to me that Electric Light Orchestra, for all...

...twee than this lovely little song from the Acid House Kings, from Sweden's own Labrador Records ( swoon The recorded version may be even more twee, as the group plays in front of a chintz-patterned wall. Too cute And what about the comic appeal of a twee band playing under the name Acid House Kings? Wouldn't you expect something more, well,...

Review of Belgian Iceland Airwaves Concert by múm - Kira Kira - Parachutes - Skakkamanage @ Ancienne Belgique (AB) @ Brussels 8. March 2008

2008-03-17 18:13:00 by Wim Van Hooste in I ♥ Icelandic Music
 
...twee uiterst mooie stemmen maar samen botsten ze als twee treinen op hetzelfde spoor. Desalniettemin een ontdekking. En het zou niet de eerste van de avond zijn Op hun huidige tour door Europa had múm het ietwat vreemde Borko uitgekozen als voorprogramma. Hierdoor belandde het zestal ook op het grote podium van de AB. Getooid in niet altijd...

The Smittens - The Coolest Thing About Love

2008-10-27 21:46:00 by Colin in Indie MP3 - Keeping C86 Alive!
...twee (alright, massively twee), don't forget that The Smittens are a talented group of musicians. Singing duties are shared more-or-less equally between Colin Clary, Dana Kaplan and Max Andrucki, which gives the album a pleasing variety. No-one sings more than two in a row, and Dana's sweet-little-girl voice could scarcely be more different...

2008-12-03 12:20:36 by Cecilia in Rock Sellout
...twee-nerd that I am (and still somewhat bitter about missing out on its glory days), I got very excited when stumbling upon this band. Their sound of jangly guitars, sweet pop melodies and cute boy-girl vocal combo really makes you think back to the twee institution that was Sarah Records Officially formed in the spring of 2006, this...

Moofish Catfish

...twee/bedroom recording in essence, but don't run away yet; they're not twee in that annoying, self-pitying way. They just like it soft. Moofish Catfish sounds like a slow-paced, psych-leaning compliment to Swedish compatriots, Envelopes, or a more flesh-out Taken By Trees. They're dripping with Swedish pop
