272. FOREVER by Charly Bliss

272. FOREVER by Charly Bliss

Previously covered back in 2020 American indie pop / power pop band Charly Bliss are back with an all new record for 2024. Between their previous and current albums, lead singer Eva Hendricks moved to Australia, her bandmate brother had kids and the band embraced an almost full throated pop direction

260. UNDERACHIEVERS PLEASE TRY HARDER by Camera Obscura

260. UNDERACHIEVERS PLEASE TRY HARDER by Camera Obscura

I've been meaning to write about this Scottish indie pop band's 2003 record but just hadn't gotten around to it. However, I recently learned that they will be releasing a new album this coming May, so I thought now is as good a time

256. AHORA by Melenas

256. AHORA by Melenas

Does one need to dust off their Spanish to English dictionary to enjoy this 2023 record from Pamplona, Spain's Melenas? While it couldn't hurt, I don't think it's really necessary. Heck, I took 6 years of Spanish through junior high and high

254. SUCKER by IAN SWEET

254. SUCKER by IAN SWEET

So I'm covering this just released 2023 record after just one day of listening because there's something about it that has captivated me. IAN SWEET (yes, what's up with these stylized band names?) is what Jillian Medford (essentially the only member of this '

250. STRANGE DISCIPLE by Nation of Language

250. STRANGE DISCIPLE by Nation of Language

Everything I said about this American band's debut record back in 2020 still holds true for their recently released third outing. If you long for the days of 80's synth pop you need to be following this band. This trio has a knack for combining the

244. PRESTIGE by Girl Ray

244. PRESTIGE by Girl Ray

This just released 2023 record by UK trio Girl Ray is the feel good album to get you ready for the weekend. If you don't have plans to hit the disco tonight (I know, I'm aging myself), don't worry - just whip out the

216. STAY PROUD OF ME by NoSo

216. STAY PROUD OF ME by NoSo

This 2022 debut record by Abby Hwong deals with themes of gender identity and coming of age. Their moniker, NoSo, refers to the relentless question of which Korea they are originally from (North or South). Much of the album is guitar-oriented with an air of dream pop that reminds me

213. SOUVENIRS by Pale Blue Eyes

213. SOUVENIRS by Pale Blue Eyes

When the name of your band is the same as an excellent song by The Velvet Underground, you've already got big shoes to fill. And fill they do with this just released 2022 debut from the English trio. If you're a fan of bands like Joy

212. 22 MAKE by Oh Wonder

212. 22 MAKE by Oh Wonder

I previously covered the debut record by this English indie pop duo here. Since that debut, they've released four additional albums, this being the latest. The significance of this record is that it serves as a follow-up to 22 Break (released in late 2021), which is their self-professed

190. HOME, BEFORE AND AFTER by Regina Spektor

190. HOME, BEFORE AND AFTER by Regina Spektor

Previously covered here, Regina Spektor is back with this just released 2022 record. Ever since I first heard her, I've been enamored and mesmerized by her voice - I can't not listen to what she has to sing. She's not your straightforward singer songwriter;

182. THE LAST THING LEFT by Say Sue Me

182. THE LAST THING LEFT by Say Sue Me

I only just heard about this South Korean band last week when reading something about the anticipation of their upcoming 2022 record, now officially released. Well, we've not quite reached mid-year but I have a feeling this may end up on my year end list of favorite 2022

149. WET LEG (self-titled)

149. WET LEG (self-titled)

And now for something completely different…this record actually doesn’t come out until 2022, but I’ve been so enamored with a couple of the lead off singles I felt compelled to share it with you now. The band is from the Isle of Wight, formed by two college
