Checking in on the iTunes chart: Part Two

Upgrade your cell plan, already.

Howdy, howdy. They say that in summer time, a music listener’s heart turns to pop. Okay, they don’t say that but for the purpose of this article: They do. A while ago, I checked in on the iTunes chart for some rigorous analysis (read: six bullet points) but it was fun! Right? Well our stats for that day certainly say it was so let’s delve into those murky depths once more!

We Like To Stare – Aztecs

I actually heard about this song long ago, but couldn’t find anywhere to download it, so I had to contact the band personally and ask for it so I could write about it. Since then, things have been made much easier, and there is a free download link available (which I will grant you later in the post), but for now, read about the exciting talent that is Aztecs.

Can’t Control At All – Mind Fish

Well this an unexpected treat on a Wednesday!

Facedown – The 1975

Lead singer of The 1975, Matt Healy

It’s finally starting. The 1975 are beginning their inevitable road to huge success (here’s hoping).

Chocolate – The 1975

We are way too busy right now to look for new music. Instead you get to enjoy the best music we have (but have had for a while).

Streets In The Sky – The Enemy

The Enemy, after one great album (We’ll Live and Die in These Towns) and one really not so great (Music for the People) are back for the third time after four years. Find out if they rediscovered their magic after the jump.

Spirit Party – Airship

So I’m going to struggle to write of the next two to three weeks. Expect two to three posts each week. They’ll be good though so don’t worry!

Interview: Stomacher

Disgusting word – great band

We reviewed Stomacher’s awesome third album last week. Today we have an interview with the massively talented, San Francisco indie rock band.

Lay Me Down – Vows

As confusing as which Vows I’m talking about..

Before I start, this isn’t the same Vows that read our blog. I wish it was, so Vows (the ones who read our posts) please send us your music so we can put you up here!

Breezing through my Summer playlist: fun., Andrew Bird and some rock.

Summer! Also: Get well soon, KoL

Exams are conspiring to make this the least fun few weeks of my life. That means posting is likely to become grouchy/irregular. I thought about just posting some playlists of mine over the coming weeks with a few comments. Then I realised that would be incredibly lazy. Then I thought, it’s still lazy but I’m going to do it. And as a reminder, we compiled a summer-ready playlist for you last year; it’s worth checking out. Enjoy these next few weeks. If you have exams, bear with it; if not, bear with whatever ‘it’ you have:
