Friendly Fires - Jump in the pool

2008-10-04T12:23:47Z

Although Jump in the pool is currently my favourite track from Friendly Fires' debut album, I'm not sure about the video. It's filmed almost entirely in slow-motion, and it seems to resist the up-tempo drums that form the bouncy heartbeat of the song. But the chorus is a lot more soft-flowing and dreamy than it first appears, and the languorous background harmonies do match the visuals. Anyway - watch it and see for yourself. If you like the song, you'll love the album. (Myspace: FriendlyFires)

Dan Le Sac vs. Scroobius Pip - Look For The Woman

South - Better Things

2008-07-23T07:41:00Z

I came across South via The Yellow Stereo (the source of many good things - check them out). Better Things is a track from their new album You Are Here. Lovely little pop ditty that reminds me very strongly of Deep Blue Something on their little-known but excellent album Byzantium.

Elbow - Grounds for Divorce

2008-06-06T19:22:25Z

Been listening to Elbow's latest album, The Seldom Seen Kid quite a bit of late. My favourite song from it is the painfully beautiful "Weather to Fly", but "Grounds for Divorce" comes in a close second. Stomping good indie blues rock.

Mates Of State - Get Better

2008-05-18T22:14:28Z

Strange video for a lovely song: Get Better by Mates Of State. I hadn't come across Mates Of State before, so thanks to The Yellow Stereo for the tip.

The Bird And The Bee - Again

2008-05-15T15:55:51Z

Cool music video by filmmaker Dennis Liu, built by recording a Mac desktop. Nice song, too: "Again" by The Bird And The Bee. (Via TUAW)

Tokyo Police Club - Your English Is Good

2008-04-24T18:48:33Z

Via The Yellow Stereo, here's a nice slice of Canadian indie pop. You can find a higher-res version of the video on Tokyo Police Club's own website.

The Long Blondes - Century

2008-03-28T08:11:20Z

Can't find a video for this single, but it's so good that I'm just pointing to an unofficial audio upload instead. This is The Long Blondes' first single from their new album Couples. Quite a departure from their first album (Someone To Drive You Home) -- they seem to have gone all electro.
