JoSefina: Silhouettes

Jack
As if the world didn’t have enough sadcore acts, another one comes trailing. Bruna Cardoso, calling herself professionally as JoSefina, takes a stab at the industry with her debut EP, Silhouettes, which she releases independently at Bandcamp. Sure, the tracks as a raw as they can be, but the spirit and brevity is there, showing all of us that in due time, this girl’s going to have her place in the sun (or our iPods, in that matter).

Young Summer: Fever Dream

Jack
Get swept away with the progressive beats of an impending Young Summer. This is the name Bobbie Allen uses for her newest musical endeavor, which comes from a long, distinguished breed of female indie acts — bringing their impressive artistry along. Think Florence & The Machine, or even Norah Jones, and that’s what you’ll get, more or less.

Fanfarlo: The Sea

Jack
The sea serves as an inspiration to so many wonderful things, including Fanfarlo‘s recent EP. This London-based indie alternative band released The Sea last October 2013, and the quintet describes it as “science fiction” concept project, where the songs are said to be a discussion about the possible origins of humanity and the direction we are all heading for in the future. Moreover, the group describes it as “Space Opera” meets “Spaghetti Western.” [Hmm, interesting.]

Deadwall: Bukimi no Tani

Monica
The wait is finally over for Deadwall fans as the band’s second release, Bukimi no Tani, is up for grabs. The UK, Leeds group formed in early 2012, where they released their first EP but later disbanded. After regrouping, the four-piece crew returns to the music scene with a fresh set of songs that, as they put it, “treads that well worn line of beauty and brutality.”
