Alex caught up with Manchester’s Help Stamp Out Loneliness, a promising dream pop outfit whose debut album is slated for release on May 9th. Read, listen and order. Help Stamp Out Loneliness by Help Stamp Out Loneliness 1. I’m very excited to finally get to know you guys a little better. So band members, please introduce yourselves! I would really appreciate it if each of you could give us his/hers specific character description in no…
You know Phoebe from way back when she started performing and touring with Nouvelle Vague. No long introduction is needed for this artist, as I’m sure you all know about her totally original and impressive performances of Human Fly, Bela Lugosi’s Dead, Escape Myself etc., about her absolutely brilliant performance with Melanie Pain of Too Drunk To Fuck, where they dance and scream (in the most pleasant way) and give out Whisky to the audience…
ZME: A simple, maybe a little dumb question first: why did you call the band „Springfactory” ? A short description will do. We saw a sign outside a factory that read ”Welcome to Springfactory” We just thought it could be a good name for a band. This was before we had even started a band together. ZME: Springfactory is formed by Lina Cullemark, Peter Gunnarson, Daniel Holmström, Magnus Svedjebratt and Mikael Hall. Could you each…

Pocketbooks is lately, probably the most appreciated British indie pop band, if we were to consider the different reviews and critical opinions it has received from various music websites and magazines (you’ll read about it in the interview). They come from London, they have released a 7″, an EP, a single and have recently released their debut album – “Flight Paths”. The album is available HERE for purchase! If you want to read about great…
tada tátà is a special musical project from Sweden, more exactly from Umeå/Falun. They represent a set of electro pop and folk, with songs mostly played on guitars and Ukulele. Listen to it and you’ll notice that it’s like music for toys. I know, it sounds a bit childish and blurry – it’s probably just their toy piano and glockenspiel toying with my mind. They sound, in fact, just great and their lyrics and use…
I have recently interviewed a new indie pop/experimental band from Amsterdam called “We’ll Make it Right”. You can read the full interview HERE ! If you like what you’ve read and if you have enjoyed the song that was available for listening and download, then you’ll probably want to give the entire album a second listen. Tim, one of the members of the band, decided to give you all a special surprise – you can…

Because we wanted to get to know them a little better, we had a talk with one of the members of the band, Dean. Read the interview with Dean Tippet and find out exactly what the Dutch have to…
“Astronauts of Antiquity” is an electro/neo-soul indie band from New York. The band has two main members: India and B. Rhyan, but they also work with 4 other musicians, to get the most out of the instruments they want to play and to have the complex and worthy live performances their songs would suggest they have. They have released an album in 2005 – AOA 1 – and have released their second work in February…
