One Like Son - Start The Show (2011) ›

First post of the year (or of the past few months, sorry! I have excuses and I will be shortly explaining them, though for the past three weeks or so I’ve not really got anything to say for myself.)

This album was entirely recorded on an iPhone, which I think is super cool - you can’t even tell, unless you listen through headphones, then the static shines. It’s made me think about doing it myself, though!

I’m not normally a fan of powerpunk, either, but something about this takes me back to being thirteen, which would normally be quite an angsty thing to do…but in this case, it just really cheers me up. Worth a listen, and a purchase, if you’ve got the money going spare! I’ve been looking at a lot of Bandcamp stuff lately what with recording my own album, so I’ve come across a fair shake of bedroom artists, and I’m actually really enjoying the selection!
