On this week’s show: Another set of hits from another universe, with southern punk sounds from Louisiana (Fake Last Name), Florida (STARBURST) and Georgia (Ultra Lights). Melbourne minimalism (Pretty In Pink) and snappy rhythmic pop from Portland (Whisper Hiss) and Oslo (Pom Poko). Plus bedroom pop from Chicago 9Humdrum) to Indonesia (Race), and shimmering New Zealand guitars both old (David Kilgour) and new (Jim Nothing).
The annotated indie hit parade starts below…
