From Glasgow, Scotland and their just released EP 2010, please enjoy the previously unknown to me Annie Stevenson and their infectious and obviously thought-provoking plaint "TV Took My Soul."
I don't usually have time to check out the unsigned bands who send us stuff, which is a source of some continuing guilt for me, but for what it's worth the e-mail that came with this, from the charmingly monikered Nick Scroggie, hooked me right away with his (accurate, as it turned out) description of his group's music: "Grunge Meets Punk Meets Power Pop." It helped that the song was so neatly put together, of course, as did a quote decorating their myspace page: "Guitar groups are on the way out, Mr. Epstein."
In any case, you can find out more about these guys (including info about upcoming gigs, assuming we have any other readers in the vicinity of Scotland) at the aforementioned myspace page.

Meh.
Though I do like the way he wails, "An' I wan' it BACK!"

Hey -- at least it's not another goddamn Skip Spence song.
:-)
Seriously, "TV Took My Soul" has been lodged in my brain for a couple of days now. I think there's some sort of irony there.
This is more my cup of tea. Kind of The Clash meets The Soft Boys.
