Discoverer 53: new indie findings

New band proposals in this freezing Sunday, enjoy!

Concrete Knives. Coming from Caen, France, this young quintet started making music together at high school. On April 2011 they released their first EP, "You Can't Blame the Youth", and thanks to the buzz created by their tunes and their praised live shows, they signed with Bella Union on 2012. Their debut album, "Be Your Own King", was out in October in France, and this month arrived its worldwide release. Incredibly catchy songs, danceable, full of upbeat rhythms, infallible pop hooks, vocal harmonies... Think on bands like Lacrosse, Fanfarlo, Shout Out Louds, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Talking Heads, Arcade Fire... Impressive sound shaker. Irresistible.

Dick Diver. Off to Melbourne, Australia, to meet this Fitzgerald's fourpiece. Started as the project of guitarists Alastair McKay and Rupert Edwards, it quickly turned into a collaborative full band. They debuted in 2009 with EP "Arks Up", very successful  in Australia. Album "New Start Again" came out in late 2011, with digital EP "Alice" following in 2012, announcing the arrival of "Calendar Days", second LP coming this March, propelled with single "Water Damage". Jangle pop that flirts with punk, rock or blissful pop, packed with a distinct, unique vibe... like I have been hearing them from a decade now. Amazing expectations. What a discovery!

The Babies. We end this week's proposals in Brooklyn, NYC, to meet a band originated in 2009 from the friendship of Vivian Girls' Cassie Ramone and Woods' Kevin Morby. Although not conceived as a serious affair initially, with the addition of another friend, drummer Justin Sullivan plus Brian Schleyer, they evolved into a proper group with tours and releases: some singles in 2010 and their s/t debut on 2011. A rarities/demos collection followed shortly, and by the end of 2012 came "Our House On the Hill", their second album. Carefree, straightforward lo-fi indie-rock with joyous girl-boy vocals. Light-hearted and contagious music.

Indie music videos to keep you watching

Back from a lovely long weekend, so I decided to start posting again with some very cool music videos to share with you.

As expected, I'm constantly listening the long-awaited, self-titled debut album from Veronica Falls. "Bad Feeling", its latest single, out in Slumberland Records or Bella Union now has a video. Check it out!


Another record just released that deserves a lot of attention. St.Vincent's "Strange Mercy" is a very special, rewarding one, and "Cruel", besides an excellent song, now has one of the best videos of the year.


Fanfarlo's new record is approaching, and now we have "Replicate", the single and video, to prove it. A very curious tune, intriguing and experimental without losing their trademark talent for the most contagious hook. A real grower.


Another well expected debut album is "Welcome to Condale" from Summer Camp. "Better Off Without You" is their new single, and its impossibly catchy and joyful despite its lyrics, feelings that the cool split-screen video is able to recreate with brilliance.


And finally, the premiere of the charming new video from Lisa Hannigan, "Knots". What can I say? Eternal love
