Serena Joy

From out of the mists of Cardiff, Weymouth and London come Serena Joy, an ambient mix of lo-fi indie, post rock and melodramatic sky torching screamo. Featuring members of andtheywillriot! and Missiles Of Uncertain Destinations. Debut EP out on We Heart Records.  "last.fm
-With the majestic, twisted glory of early These Arms Are Snakes, and the biting melodies of the supremely righteous Icarus Line all mixed with a chilling etherealness that makes SJ head and shoulders above their fellow all-bluster-no-identity semesters. Genius!   "myspace"

Ours will be a lonely battle e.p. '2007

Playfellow

Playfellow has already established a very strong position with its first album "Penumbra". Their second album "Carnival Off" only confirms the raw energy of the debut this time covered into much more intricate compositions, harder to get through but the more beautiful. This 5 piece with their shimmering guitar and keyboard soundscapes which can mutate into a massive wall of beautiful noise, combined with the haunting vocals of Toni Niemeier and Katharina Mey, is a young band from Germany. And their music has already become something very hard to pin down…which is always a good sign!
