The Lucksmiths: "Falling Off of My Feet Again" (Siddeleys cover)
The Lucksmiths
I've been slowly working my way through the new, MASSIVE (49 tracks!) Lucksmiths compilation, Spring A Leak and I'm continually excited after every track. There's enough covers, b-sides, demos, compilation tracks, and unreleased stuff here to keep anyone happy for months. I knew I was going to love it but I couldn't have possibly been more ecstatic when I saw that not only was there Cat's Miaow cover (!), but there's also a Siddeleys cover!!! – and of one of my favorite Siddeleys songs, "Falling Off of My Feet Again." I would hugely recommend Spring A Leak to not just Lucksmiths fans – who will no doubt love every second of every 49 tracks – but to anyone who's ever loved any kind of indiepop, because chances are there's probably something here that you wont see coming! P.S. I've also posted the original "Falling Off of My Feet Again." Both versions obviously come highly recommended!

Pick up Spring A Leak from Matinee Records!
The Lucksmiths on MySpace!
Oh, and you can actually grab The Siddeleys' Slum Clearance from Matinee, too – which you should definitely do if you don't own it, because it's one of the most essential indiepop records ever. Totally unfuckablewith.
Labels: Matinee, The Lucksmiths, The Siddeleys

I'm so glad you picked up on the Siddeleys cover cos it really is the highlight of that Lucksmiths record for me. It's dead good!

Hey,
I am really digging this track. Another band I've recently discovered that I think you might like is White Shoes and the Couples Company. You can download their songs at mintyfresh.com.
Hey Matt,
I saw the same lineup in NY a couple weeks ago too...I second your "so so excellent" and raise it another so.
oh oh my!
