Passing the midsummer is hard for a person whose cup is always half empty. I need more of these bright summer nights. And here are some music to spend those nights with. Half an hour altogether.

My Latest Novel are perhaps the next Arcade Fire or perhaps the first Arcade Fire copy. Or perhaps I’m double-wrong. Anyway, lovely song. Aerogramme’s Slayer contrubution was posted just the other day, but I found out that it fits in perfect here, so that’s why it’s included yet again. Under Byen are Danish. Beautiful music that’ll lull you to sleep.

I found out about the new Boy Omega album The Black Tango via Afterseason who had quoted (perhaps) the press release for the album. I quote too: “This album is basically about the ending of a three-year-old relationship.— It is about moving to a new place on your own, a new street, with a new graveyard outside your window. It is about the silence when you go to sleepalone, with cold feet, pretending the pillow is her.” That’s strong - and with such a beautiful cover I think this album is something I should get my hands on. It sound awfully lot Robert Smith, though.

Giraffe are unknown to me by any other means than his music. His self-titled album has been a sort of revelation to me during last few months. It’s available for download at the brilliant 12rec, and I also purchased an original cd-r copy. 12rec is brilliant, did I mentioned it already. Great, unique music offered for free downloads plus sold cheap in cd-r copies with admirable artwork. I’d say support! Anyway, Giraffe’s music is calm, emotional, nicely rough. Somehow the atmosphere of the record reminds of Logh’s first album Everytime A Bell Rings, but maybe it’s just the time of the year; I found out about Logh at the same season.

Which leads us to Logh. I will post about them everytime they have something new to share and this time it’s “The Smoke Will Lead You Home” from their latest record. It’ve stayed perfect.

Tokyo Police Club are Canadian, that I know. And their myspace site need someone’s extra care. That’s all I know. Cute song however.
