This Town Needs Guns assembles its own Ark for debut album
Today
Oxford’s second finest export This Town Needs Guns (need you ask the first) have plucked up the guts and named their debut album after a 70s prog-rock classic.
Released in October, ‘Animals’ may shamelessly pinch the mammal-naming method Pink Floyd adopted in 1977 but from the snippets Cow + Field has heard, its sounding more than worthy.
The 13-track debut will available online from 6 October and physically a week after through Big Scary Monsters.
The artwork doesn't feature any floating pigs or Battersea Power Station but it is super-cute and can be viewed here

Tellison & Tubelord - Split 7" (Banquet Records)
Wednesday 30th July 2008
There's a fine line between perfectly encapsulating the joys of Summer and just sounding like a bunch of tacky annoying cunts.
If you're wondering who falls into the latter classification, think Alphabeat, Dashboard Confessional, but this split from two of the finest upcoming bands unequivocally belongs to the earlier category.

Deerhunter - 'Microcastle' (Kranky records)

Ian Breen OBE finds out if psycho tits Bradford Cox can top 'Cryptograms'...
Deerhunter have always been an enigma to me - their records have been dark, experimental affairs - they simultaneously draw you in with their melodic, droning songs and exclude you with their icy, oblique atmospheres - often within the same song. Does that make sense? Previous album 'Cryptograms' was an awesome, yet confusing, record - you couldn't play it at parties, but it had its moments where you just wanted to dance your socks off.
