Soft Hearted Scientists have been a band since the early 2000s and have served as the vehicle for the music of Nathan Hall since then. He's clearly infatuated with psych pop in the vein of Syd Barrett, or Strawberry Alarm Clock. But really, this reminds me of The Dukes of Stratosphear.

And of course, since Soft Hearted Scientists are a Cardiff, Wales based band, I can't help but mention Gorky's Zygotic Mynci. This is being released by Fruits De Mer Records (an earlier CD version was released by The Hip Replacement).

Putting a post about the new Mo Troper (Portland, Oregon) album up the day after Soft Hearted Scientists seems perfect. Mo has always had psych pop sensibilities, and while he's not as unabashed about his love of the 1960s, it's hard to deny some serious Beatles, et al, love going on here.

One thing about Mo - there's nothing quite like his voice. Scott Miller (Game Theory) called his voice a "miserable whine", and while I never agreed with that, Troper's voice is in a similar range.

Troper's guitar can ring like Big Star, but I want to throw out some other comparisons that may be less well known - Sweat Enzo, Diners and Finnish Postcard.

Lame-O Records is releasing this in early May 2024.

Soft Hearted Scientists - Uncanny Tales From the Everyday Undergrowth

Llevo varios días pensando que este trabajo de Soft Hearted Scientists acababa de salir. Pero no, resulta que es una especie de recopilación de sus primeras canciones que se puso a la venta allá por 2005. El caso es que ha sido ahora cuando lo han subido a las plataformas de streaming y por eso me aparece como novedad. También es cierto que está descatalogado y solo se pueden encontrar copias…
