Ballarat-spawned five-piece The Crepes specialise in indie pop earworms that radiate timeless innocence. Case in point: ‘Cold Summers’ feels like a late-1950s slow-dance number updated only slightly for the post-Shins world. It’s the opener and title track of the band’s debut EP. Sung with breathy blissfulness by Hollow Everdaze’s Tim Karmouche, these songs have a commanding magnetism that belies Crepes’ twangy, keyboard-frosted nonchalance. Check out ‘Ain’t Horrible’, if you haven’t already.  jangly as fuck, smooth and glorious

Sweet sound from Melbourne Australian Jangle pop band “The TWERPS” album is available now, the band have just signed to Merge Records,

Melbourne’s Twerps have released “Back To You” b/w “Always Waiting” on limited edition 7-inch vinyl as well as digitally. The single quickly follows the August-released Underlay EP and precedes their second full-length Range Anxiety, due in January.

“Back to You” has a vibrant and lighthearted way of addressing the relationship between insecurity and desire. Singer Martin Frawley contemplates being tied down, letting the listener decide what exactly he’s tethered to. The Johann Rashid-directed music video captures Twerps and their radiant local surroundings with a romantic sensibility
