O3L Presents: Weekend Six Pack, Vol. 34 - SKEPTEMBER!

Hear ye, hear ye! We hereby declare this month SKEPTEMBER at O3L! That's right, the releases of the UK fiercely independent label Skep Wax Records have been so uniformly excellent this year that we thought it was high time to dedicate an entire episode to them.

Skep Wax is run by indie legends Amelia Fletcher and Rob Pursey, whose long history runs through seminal bands like Talulah Gosh, Heavenly, Marine Research, Catenary Wires, and Swansea Sound. The label carries forward the DIY spirit that drove labels like Sarah Records and K Records, with the simple premise of releasing terrific music on their own terms, driven by the belief that NOTHING beats a great pop record. During this episode, you will hear this delectable six pack of tracks:

1) Swansea Sound - "Mean To Be Mean" (from the forthcoming LP Pre-Post Truth)

2) British Birds - "Scary Movies" (from the upcoming album Oscillate, Murmurate)

3) Jetstream Pony - "Grimalkin Tom" (from the compilation Pets Sounds)

4) The Would-Be-Goods - "Witch Hazel" (from the marvelous record Tears Before Bedtime)

5) Railcard - "Flannelette" (from the brand new long player Two Steps At A Time)

6) Foglights - "A Brighter Kind of Almost" (from the debut EP Nous Deux)

Bonus Track!

Gay Skeleton Club - "2 Cats" (also from Pets Sounds)
