Sparse and ephemeral Plantagenet 3’s blink and you’ll miss it 7″ ‘The Darkening Green’ mixes minimalist electronica, surf rock and spagetthi western, creating a sound that is as weird and idiosyncratic as you’re likely to find in a market crammed full of dirgeful indie. Though some may be frightened

The Rockingbirds – The Return of the Rockingbirds

The Rockingbirds don’t hail from Nashville or Austin but that hasn’t stopped these plucky north Londoners from being compared to alt-country greats. A career spanning two decades, their third album ( and their first in 17 years) sees these pedal steel guitar veterans returning to what made them so
