  • It took one month to cross the big pond, but I finally received Lovelife’s first single today called Your New Beloved/Dying To Start Again and yes, it is a double A-side (how old-fashioned!). It was issued in June in the US this year. We can expect a new EP this Autumn.

It contains an hour of discussions by the band, probably about this single and more.

  • I’ve added a scan of メトロノーム’s 東京バビロン concert-only CD-single today. Nothing too spectacular I must admit since you can get it quite easy, although it was only released in 2004 on June the 27th and only available on that particular day. The thing is that it is normally for sale around ¥3500-¥4500 (roughly €28-€35) excluding…

  • This is a Record Store Day release from April this year. It is a 12″ single which features the band Toy on side A and The Horrors on side B with the tracks Motoring/Moving Further Away. Each song was remixed by one or more band members from the other band, giving this release a nice…

  • Lovelife issued a new tour-only EP last month called MMXIII. I do not own this release yet so I cannot show any scans, but the info should be fairly accurate. So ready – set – Go! and start searching for a copy in case you miss one.
