Must-have compilation alert for fans of quality indie and jangle pop! Prefect Records have just released the sequel to their wonderful 14 <\/em>compilation<\/a> that was released almost exactly one year ago. If Prefect Records wants to make this an annual thing, I’m all for it. I mean 14<\/em>, Two Two Seven<\/em>, there still are plenty of numbers available, right?<\/p>\n

But more imporantly, like 14<\/em>, the Two Two Seven<\/em> comp offers the purest of ear candy from some of the bestest and freshest indie pop bands around. If you frequent our site, you’ll find a lot of familiar face among the contributors. The Laughing Chimes, Autocamper, The Smashing Times, Wandering Summer, Whitney’s Playland, Sweet Nobody, Tony Jay, and Mt. Misery all previously made the wantlist, and it’s rad seeing them all on the same piece of vinyl. To be sure, even though there are some nice surprises like a new Real Numbers track and the delightfully scrappy Ridicule<\/em> by The Wendy Darlings, not everything on the comp is brand new and unreleased, but they are all getting the vinyl treatment for the very first time.<\/p>\n

Big shoutout to Alfie Dobson for putting this mix together. From the moment they were released, I’ve been eager to add songs like Show Me the Way<\/em> (Wandering Summer), The Fall Of Sweet Pea<\/em> (Tossing Seed), and Million Yard Stare<\/em> (Sweet Nobody) to my non-digital collection. But it’s not just the individual picks, it’s the sequencing and flow of the comp, and how well these acts complement each other that might be Dobson’s most impressive accomplishment. Like I said, this one is a must-have!<\/p>\n

Two Two Seven<\/em> is out now, limited to 227 copies of course.<\/p>\n
