Green Buzzard - (I Don't Wanna) Break Your Heart

A right poppy guitar fuzzed number from a newish Sydney band that doesn't disappoint. Loads of jangle, synth and quickish drum beats, it keeps things pretty tight and simple. Minimal distort on the vocals gives the track just the edge that's needed. On high rotation due to ultra-ultra catchiness! 

Sego - Young Turks

Rod Stewart covered by American alt-indie slacker band Sego. A real treat or somewhat guilty pleasure?? Personally, I'm quite liking the stripped-back synth distorted effort that remains true to the original but adds just a shade more depth and darkness. Shades of Sonic Youth in there too I reckon - and yes they could have gone just that bit more lo-fi fuzzy...but even so...
