Thee Moths & The Late Greats

Thee Moths
Genre: Electronics / Acousmatic / Tape music
From : Erdington, Birmingham, United Kingdom

The one man experimental whirlwind that is Thee Moths comes on like Belle & Sebastian shuffling off This Mortal Coil and could easily be the 4AD houseband. These quiet, reflective, etherial songs are the sound of Sergeant Pepper tuning up his ZX Spectrum while winds blow, tears fall and the Universe sighs.

The Late Greats
Genre: Indie / Alternative / Rock
From: East Sussex, United Kingdom

Purveyors of three minute stuttery, jerky, pop-art The Late Greats possess an eclectic, almost chamelon like ability to sound like any number of bands making them difficult to pigeonhole. Perm any one from the following, The Fall (the hectoring, Mark E Smithesque vocals), Editors (20 Hours), The Zutons (Bang Bang) , The Flaming Lips crossed with The Pixes (My Feet My Bones) , The Young Knives (Tongues and Teeth),and Super Furry Animals and you'll have some idea of the Late Greats.

The brilliant MP3 by a band that has been an influence on the featured band (s) is becoming a Devil tradition and today is no exception with the following track...

MP3 - The Pixies - Hey

Enjoy and continue to spread the Devil's word.

Spreading the Devil's word like a hepatitis outbreak. Looking forward to more of your recommendations.
