Club 8 release dreamy new single and video Kill Kill Kill

Swedish Indiepop outfit Club 8 have just released a video for their new single Kill Kill Kill. Their forthcoming record due this Spring will be their 8th and first since 2010 The People’s Record. That record was quite a departure from their Twee/Triphop past with a focus on African beats and Rhythms.

The new single is a gorgeous slice of dreamy pop that calls to mind the work of recent artists like Still Corners and Memoryhouse. Johan Angergård and Karolina Komstedt may never have sounded better. The song and video are the band’s comment on animal cruelty.

Memoryhouse announces tour dates, free MP3 downloads

Memoryhouse announces The Slideshow Effect, releases free download of The Kids Were Wrong

Toronto’s Memoryhouse has been teasing us for over a year now with their beautiful sonic soundscapes. Much like Still Corners did last year, Memoryhouse seems to creep up every couple of months of with a killer standalone track, taunting you to want that full length even more.

We first heard them last year with the Years EP, featuring brilliant tracks like Lately, To The Lighthouse, Sleep Patterns and The Waves. Just enough to hook you in and leave you wanting more. Then came their lovely cover of the My Bloody Valentine classic, When You Sleep, followed by the lovely single Caregiver and its equally lovely b-side Heirloom.
