Those are some nice tunes on the label MySpace page. Will have to head over to allmusic and read up on these bands. I'm not so well versed in power-pop.

This would definitely be worth checking out especially with The Nice Boys, Nikki Corvette and the recently discovered Speedies (at least recently for myself thanks to The Adored).

Someone (January 8, 2007)

Carbonas!!! Beat Beat Beat!!! Busy Signals!!!

LushJ (January 8, 2007)

Wow all this AND Tina And The Total Babes AND Top Ten? Frickin' awesome!

(Top Ten is the latest Tina Lucchesi band, featuring Richie Bucher/Soup/Winona Ryders/etc & Erin/Western Dark- 2 raucous 7"s out so far, top shelf singles!)

All that's needed is the Leftovers...

Jesse, you plan on making a trip out to NYC for this? I think most of us are gonna go to at least a couple of those shows.
