Great Pop Supplement do it again with a cracking 5 band split
10" job. And it doesn't feature any old toss... oh no. On 'It
Happened In A Day' you get exclusive songs by Tunng, Woodcraft
Folk, Laughing Windows, Shady Bard & Adam Leonard with PG Six.
Class!! There's only 1000 of these suckers so don't dawdle.
And we've got 'em before anyone else which is a bit of a scoop
for us here! Tunng open up the proceedings with an incredible
tune. It's one of their best I reckon..... if you bought the
ep for this one track you' won't feel hard done to. I'm not
gonna go into what Tunng sound like cos you really should know
now. Fortunately Woodcraft Folk pop along with a weird little
electronic ditty which could be mistaken for some of the Ghost
Box stuff with some weird vocals? Possibly a bit White Noisey?
The unheard band on here for me are Laughing Windows who's
psyche sounding tune is ridiculously catchy...and it clocks in
like a more folk sounding Spacemen 3/ Spiritualized filmic
thing with a real paranoid feel to it. It's a really
claustrophobic tune. Shady Bard's turn next with the gentle
miserable approach to things which will make you run for the
razor blades.... this one is quite orchestral sounding and
they have that grandiose Coldplay thing going on yet it sounds
completely fragile at the same time.... Go figure. The EP ends
with Adam Leonard and PG Six which is a beautiful blues/
psych/ Syd Barret influenced sounding tune to finish the
proceedings. Fantastic stuff and well worthy of the coveted
single of the week prize!!
