Big thanks to Keith for the tip-off about these
lovely Edith Frost demos
over at archive.org.

And thanks to Adam for letting me know about this page, hosting new
tracks by Justin Roelofs (ex-singer for The Anniversary). I know they’re always pegged as emo, and granted,
they were on Vagrant, but the only record of theirs I ever heard was the final one, Your Majesty, and that one
was a sweet-ass slab of indiepop if you ax me. Anyway, here’s a nice one from Justin, kinda Folk Implosion-y:

I was holding off posting about The Trouble With Sweeney’s new EP, Fishtown Briefcase,
until I had tracked down an mp3. Lo and behold, Gramophone posted one today: “Evelyn Rochman“.
Also, you can watch the video for “The City Let Me” here. For
your personal edification, a Fishtown Briefcase = a 30-pack of Miller High Life.

And those other Philly representaz The Bigger Lovers recently appeared on the Three Chord Monte
show on WFMU. Their set kicks in at about the hour-thirty mark.
