On this week’s show: Jangly Spanish (Aurora Roja), British (Blueboy) and American (Peel Dream Magazine, Creative Writing) guitars. Indie rock from Italy (Lac Observation), minimal pop from France (Vérité Synthétique), and some more German punk from the fertile Berlin scene (BIG GAINER). Plus skittering/harmonious pop from St. Louis (Shy Boys), garage rock from Boston (Nervous Eaters) and some UK DIY pop from one of the Gob Nation collective (Lo and Behold).

Can’t wait to hear more from your favorites? Check out their Bandcamps, and maybe throw a little $ their way…
