The Heavens: The Heavens

British rock and American psychedelia rolled into one. If at some point you fell in love with the Verve or any 90s Brit rock band during the Oasis era, then you might find The Heavens a real treat. The band infuses their music with bits and pieces of rock, alternative, psychedelia and indie rock making every listener think twice whether it's really 2010 not 1998. The band is known for mixing British 60s rock with a psychedelic American twist. Their self-titled EP has been hailed positively by various critics and reviewers. In fact, one writer even went on to say that "their 4-track demo is better than most current bands' singles." I must agree, so why not give the tracks a listen and be the judge.

Duels: The Barbarians Move In

Duels is a British indie rock band from Leeds. They formally started playing together in 2005, but became quite popular quite recently after The Guardian described them as "one of Britains most ambitious groups". The group released their first album in July 2006. "The Bright Lights And What I Should Have Learned" was very highly reviewed and named Album of the Week in The Sunday Times. "The Barbarians Move In" is the bands second album. Released February 14th 2008, Duels is giving it out free as a digital download on the albums first anniversary.
