I think I'm going fucking crazy, I'm surrounded by parasites

Sheffield indiepop trio Slow Down Tallahassee are finally releasing their debut record on May 26th! It's called The Beautiful Light and it'll be released by Thee SPC.

It's going to be amazing and it celebration of it's amazingness, Thee SPC are offering a FREE download-only "Virtual Vinyl" single of the record's excellent title track b/w a beautiful new song called "Limbs." "The Beautiful Light" has been stuck in my head since the very first time I heard it and I can't decide what I love more – the awesome halloween-y synths or when they oh so passionately sing the lines:

I think I might go suicidin'
I'm sick and tired of fucking hidin'
Memories are getting hazy
I think I'm going fucking crazy!


You can download the tracks below or head over to Thee SPC and grab em both.

[MP3]: Slow Down Tallahassee :: The Beautiful Light (Hiiiiiightly Rec'd!)
[MP3]: Slow Down Tallahassee :: Limbs (This one, too!!!)

You can go order the The Beautiful Light from Thee SPC now!!!
So go do it!

All I Ever Wanted Was A Happy Happy Heart

*EDIT: THE PERSON CLAIMING TO BE DAVID NEWFELD
IS INFACT AN IMPOSTER–BUT STILL A JERK*


You might recognize the title of this post from the current "subtitle" of this blog, which can probably be seen right up there at the top of your browser window! Well, as some of you may be aware of, that line comes from the song "Popkids of the World Unite!" by Horowitz – surely one of the finest pop songs of the past year. The song appeared on the band's Tracyanne single on Cloudberry in early 2007, which has long been sold out. So, the band have decided to reissue "Tracyanne" b/w "Popkids of the World Unite!" (the two best songs from the Cloudberry single) on a nice thick slab of transparent yellow 7" vinyl! You should probably make very sure that you own this immediately, because Horowitz are amazing amazing amazing! And, yknow, since they are so amazing, if you're just not into 7" records you can just download both songs on their MySpace. However, if you do like 7" records, then their MySpace is also where you want to be, because thats where you can order it! Did I mention there's only 200 of them?

If you never have, now's a good time:
[MP3]: Horowitz :: Popkids of the World Unite (Most Surely Recommended!)

Horowitz have also just put together a virtual box set available for download, through Thee SPC. Apart from I Need a Blanket and It's Better To Eat Twinkies...(both from the Frosty Cat Songs LP) there is Animal Soup from the sold out Cloudberry single. There's also the video for "Blanket", which is completely fantastic, virtual badges, a postcard and an online Humbug Special zine, containing interviews by Kieron from In Love With These Times and Roque from Cloudberry Records. And it's all FREE!!

You can get it all HERE!
