Wild Nothing - Nowhere
Track of the day: Wild Nothing - Nowhere
Man alive, I have waited for fresh material from Wild Nothing and here it is finally. Slightly more upbeat and jangly than 2010’s Gemini LP this track was recorded in a REAL studio and it shows. Gone are the dark, moody and occasionally amateurish productions found on the aforementioned album. However, I feel that without some of that haze this track may get lost in the well of indie-pop. Hopefully this one is a grower as Gemini is an album I fell in love with because of it’s great personality. A sophomore record is expected this year and I can’t wait to hear it.

Track of the Day: SBTRKT - Atomic Peace
UK producer SBTRKT had arguably one of my favourite albums of 2011 with his self titled LP. Today he posted this previously unreleased track on his soundcloud and it apparently dates back to ‘09. Where has he been hiding this stuff?
Comeback Kid
Track of the Day: Sleigh Bells - Comeback Kid
I’m pretty sure that Sleigh Bells are yet to release a bad song. This is the second released track from their upcoming sophomore LP Reign of Terror which will be released towards the end of Feburary. Comeback Kid sounds like much of Treats’ heavier moments polished up and twinkling with pop sensibilities that the aforementioned album reached for but occasionally fell slightly short of.
