Name: Ned

Bandcamp collection: www.bandcamp.com/noloveforned

recommendations:



1. Daniel Romano has been dropping a new album every Wednesday during quarantine on bandcamp. A couple weeks back he released a cover of Bob Dylan's 1982 album 'Infidels' imagining what it would have sounded like if he recorded it with the Latino punk band The Plugz from L.A. who backed Dylan for his first Letterman appearance around that time.

2. Markus Acher of the Notwist again teams up with Saya and Takashi Ueni of Tenniscoats for a third album as Spirit Fest. Some of the tracks still sound like an acoustic Notwist album (a most excellent idea) while others are more gentle psych-folk.

3. The second album from the Australian band Sachet finally arrived in March after nearly a year since first teasing us with it's lead single. Flying Nun jangle and harmonies that often veer off in weird punky angles.

4. There wasn't really a need to reference a specific release from Glenn Donaldson's indie pop project The Reds, Pinks and Purples. Undoubtedly by the time you finish reading this there will be a new 2-3 song EP up and they're all magic. His blissed out jangle remind me of the Field Mice and Orange Cake Mix..

5. Punky, love-lorn indie pop from Vancouver that contrast the nasal lead vocals of DJ On (Thee Ahs) with sweet backing vocals.

6. Post-punk band from four Bristol women who examine sexual and gender politics with a good dose of humor.
