Hello Nurse – PharmagiciansPosted August 21st, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Indie | No comments yet.I vaguely remember Brooklyn rock group Hello Nurse from an old EP titled. At the time I quite enjoyed the brand of power-pop on Chorusaurus, I felt a good bit of nostalgia roll over me when their latest, a free EP titled Pharmagicians, came my way. They have a new lead singer, but they still haven’t lost their old sense of humour. A good reintroduction to an old band. Hello Nurse - Pharmagicians |

Arms – Self TitledPosted June 16th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Indie | No comments yet.Here’s a little five track indie gem. It’s easy going, relaxing, and altogether pleasant. They guys also recently took part in one of ifyoumakeit’s pink couch recording sessions (check out that real DIY cardboard box percussion!). ARMS – Self Titled EP (please forgive the world’s smallest album art)

Ready Aim Fire! – The StrangerPosted June 3rd, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Indie, Pop-Punk, Punk | No comments yet.Here’s something from Californian five-piece Ready Aim Fire! Their free EP, The Stranger, sounds like what a bus packed with pop punk bands colliding with The Weakerthans’s tour van might sound like if while Minus The Bear wrote an account of the mishap. A curious diversion at the very least. Ready Aim Fire! - The Stranger

Angus Wallace – Distant StarPosted April 27th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Acoustic, Indie | One commentHere’s a little bluesy acoustic indie. I ran across it over at the emusic forums a few days back and was surprised at the apparent quality. Angus Wallace - Distant Star

Fever Sleeves – Soft Pipes Play OnPosted March 19th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Indie | No comments yet.This is a great little piece of noisy, fuzzy, yet also twinkly indie. It’s quite ambient and full of meandering and ultimately full of turns that transform into expressive vocal moments. Fever Sleeves - Soft Pipes Play On

Lorenzo’s Music – Three AlbumsPosted March 17th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Punk | No comments yet.Lorenzo’s Music is one of those odd little creations you find and just don’t quite know how to describe. My best attempt would be to say that they feel like a rock and jazz version of cabaret punkers The World/Inferno Friendship Society. In other words, they have a lively, genre-crossing feel that I’d imagine would make for one helluva live show. To top it off, Lorenzo’s Music has three fantastic album, each a little different than the last, my personal favourite being their self titled EP. Check ‘em out. Lorenzo’s Music – Lorenzo’s Music EP (192 kbps) Lorenzo’s Music – Schematic (192 kbps)
Lorenzo’s Music - Bazar (192 kbps)

Jay Heart Montreal – No Jet Ski? EPPosted March 15th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Punk | No comments yet.Fun little light hearted indie with some serious attitude. Their first EP serves as a great introduction to the band’s clean production value and well developed musicianship. Jay Heart Montreal - No Jet Ski? EP

The Motorcycle Industry – Electric EducationPosted March 6th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Indie, Pop-Punk | No comments yet.I quite like this find. I’ve always enjoyed the sound of Say Anything’s lead vocalist Max Bemis. The guy just sounds like he’s always on the verge of a mental breakdown. Now mix Max Bemis-inspired vocals with a dash of acoustic folk-punk and you get The Motorcycle Industry. It’s a wonderful combination that completely caught me off guard. When a debut full length delivers like this, I beg the question, who needs labels? The Motorcycle Industry - Electric Education
