HAIM, the indie pop band from the San Fernando Valley, Ca. are scheduled to release their much anticipated debut album Days Are Gone on September 30. At that point the band will begin taking over the world. HAIM, who are already HUGE in the U.K., have been periodically releasing singles over the last year. All of those singles appear to be included on the 11 track LP. A quick look-see over the track list shows only five songs that haven’t surfaced yet. Is the world ready for the next Fleetwood Mac?… or at least Quarterflash.
Check out the video for “Forever” here:

Every Sunday we take an INDEEp look into an emerging indie artist.
This week we Shine the Sunday Spotlight on Bleached.
Bleached are a Los Angeles based indie pop-punk band comprised of the sisters Jennifer and Jessica Clavin. The duo formed Bleached in 2011, two years after their former band Mika Miko disbanded. Between 2009-2011 Jennifer spent time as the keyboardist in the band Cold Cave, while Jessica played with The Cold Showers. In 2011 the band released a series of well-received 7-Inches: Francis; Carter; and Searching Through The Past. The ladies released their debut full-length Ride Your Heart back on March 25.
Ride Your Heart will definitely be on my list of the best albums of 2013, as well as Bleached should be mentioned as the best new buzzband of the year.
Say hello to your new favorite band.
Enjoy!

New Order frontman Bernard Sumner joined the pop band The Killers on stage last night at the Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago. The collaboration was a performance of the Joy Division song “Shadowplay.” The grumpy Sumner is currently recovering from a fractured leg that hasn’t slowed the current New Order U.S. tour. The classic Joy Division tune has always been a staple in The Killers sets. The Las Vegas band, that has recently taken the world by storm for no apparent reason… will amazingly celebrate the 10 year anniversary of “indie classic” Hot Fuss next year.
As promised, here’s an update on the upcoming New Order LP due out later this year. The self proclaimed “Next Sgt. Pepper’s Album” has been scrapped for an EP release instead that the band will begin working on when the kids go back to school in September…
Watch Sumner and The Killers “Shadowplay” here:

Congratulation to Nikki who gave birth to twin girls last December!
