New Bands of Note
Eternal Summers (Roanoke, Virginia) - http://www.myspace.com/eternalsummers - pretty full sound of short pop numbers for a duo ; full-length debut from Kanine in Sept. 28th.

Bravestation - (Toronto, Canada) - http://www.myspace.com/bravestation - Unsigned four-piece, very interesting sound. FREE EP available at Bandcamp

Miami Horror - (Australia) - http://www.myspace.com/miamihorror - I believe this is an unsigned band ; picking up where The Avalanches left off; very fun disco pop. They make their north american debut at the Pacific Festival in Costa Mesa and return again on Sept. 18th with Superhumanoids @ Central

Egyptian Hip Hop (Cairo AKA Manchester UK) - http://www.myspace.com/egyptianhiphop - Ratatat like sound ; very catchy, picked up by the taste-making label Moshi Moshi for a single but no deal in the states. 4-piece.

Oh Land (Denmark) - http://www.myspace.com/ohlandmusic - latest swede pop songstress to cross over to the states ; new album due out on Epic ; great Yuksek remix from RCRD LBL
