In just a few years, new British label Two-Piers has built up a must-have catalogue<\/a> of attractive compilations, always put together with love and provided with distinctive, colorful cover art. After psych, garage rock and shoegaze, they now focus on indie pop with Come To My World<\/em><\/a>, a strong overview of highlights from the past 40 years. The 34 tracks, full of jangly guitars, dreamy synths and melodic vocals, offer a wonderful journey down memory lane. From early pioneers like The Springfields, Talulah Gosh, The Flatmates and Primal Scream, via The Primitives, The Soup Dragons, Heavenly, BMX Bandits, The Vaselines and Velocity Girl, to more recent bands such as Dum Dum Girls, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Joanna Gruesome, Allo Darlin’, The Spook School, Veronica Falls and The Goon Sax, they\u2014and more\u2014are all present. No unknown names here for serious collectors and followers of the genre, for everyone else these should-have-been-hits are a good starting point for further exploration of the underground. It may not be a cheap release, but it is very valuable.<\/p>\n
