So here&#8217;s mine:<\/p>\n<p>Local fresh-faced sad-hearted trumpetting indiepop band &#8211; this could only be a Loose night! &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/silvergospelrunners\">Silver Gospel Runners<\/a> kick off proceedings. They have sullen boy\/pretty girl singers and the ubiquitous Small Blue Glockenspiel and for reasons I can&#8217;t quite work out I am having a minor epiphany (maybe partly down to the fact that I am clear of mind on a strictly enforced 3 pint rule, and recollection that I went to an England U21 game with sullen boy stage left, is it even possible to write a review without talking about your boring life?!). The sound is bright and sparkly and their tunes are tight. I think it&#8217;s really easy to do this type of music badly, which makes it all the better to see it done well.<\/p>\n<p>Next up are Beligian slow-pop duo <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/soyuncaballo\">Soy Un Caballo<\/a> (I&#8217;m A Horse or I AM HORSE?, i can&#8217;t remember, prefer the latter) &#8211; they play gentle, playful, sleepy songs in French and raise the glockenspiel game with their unbelievably large number, MAXI GLOCK somehow also emits a lounge paced bossa beat and life sounds so much better in French. They make me want to can the 3 pint rule and get a mini red wine but I stay strong.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m normally a big fan of the 1 bad band in a 4 band bill rule &#8211; guilt free smoke, trip to the bar, a little sit down, check of the scores &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/hariandaino\">Hari &amp; Aino<\/a> don&#8217;t disappoint. They are fairly non descript, except maybe to say INDIE POP GONE BAD. If nothing else they have a synthesised steel drum ode to Norway which <span style=\"FONT-STYLE: italic\">still<\/span> rouses only slightly. Time stands still. Phone battery dies. Those pink and yellow banana sweets mix really well with a Brains Smooth. There&#8217;s a stone iguana behind the new bar. In my head this band are still playing there now and I can&#8217;t get away.<br \/><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/www.joyrecords.co.uk\/blog\/uploaded_images\/P1020286-copy-787142.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; WIDTH: 242px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 320px\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.joyrecords.co.uk\/blog\/uploaded_images\/P1020286-copy-786549.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/roseelinordougallmusic\">Rose Elinor Dougall<\/a>, ex of those Pipettes, is beautiful, and now we have got that out of the way. I get the feeling there&#8217;s going to be a lot said of her in the near future, and for pretty good reason, her band sound well rehearsed, vaguely commercial, and not necessarily for the worse. Rose still strikes a good pose, this time dwelling less on that 60s kitch shtick and more on understated and clearly well crafted pop songs. She has a cool deadpan delivery and sultry singing voice, and I don&#8217;t know for sure, but i&#8217;m told it might be okay for me to play my SOPHIE ELLIS BEXTOR card in my second ever review on here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I swear I saw at least two Joy Collective writers in this crowd, a whole solitary ONE DAY has passed and no review.
