Honorable mentions:
Big Troubles - Sad Girls
“Never Mine” by Big Troubles // Romantic Comedy (2011)
Big Troubles seem like they might be incapable of producing something that will disappoint (me). I’m absolutely in love with everything that I’ve heard from them and this track, “Never Mine”, might be my favorite of them all. It’s a shoegaze-y, indie pop gem that’s packing a vocal melody that will embed itself into your brain for ages, and when those jangly lead guitars, shimmering rhythm guitars, and choral backing vocals kick in, it’s like everything that I love in a great song aligning to give me my jam of the Autumn (especially the string section at the end - i mean, fuck!). I’m going to be playing the living hell out of this for the foreseeable future. Absolute highest recommendation.
(bandcamp) Big Troubles - Romantic Comedy
Big Troubles - Misery
Summer-y lo-fi power-pop with sweet vocals that is predicted to be the next big thing. I have big expectation for their upcoming album Romantic Comedy to be released in September.
