Never heard of @gdjeremiah.bsky.social nor their 2023 THE CHRISTMAS COLLECTION release (probably because they put it out in May) of quirky fun Christmas originals, so big thanks to @indiepophalloffame.bsky.social for the H/T and to @gdjeremiah.bsky.social for making it FREE at @bandcamp.com!

The Legend! describes a difficult gig for @hifisean.bsky.social at Strutz and is positive about The Soup Dragons who "have an awesome active edge which rockets their songs into a class of their own." He is less generous to the support @bmxbanditsduglas.bsky.social

Indiepop Chronicles #27

Reviews of @weddingpresent.bsky.social's Once More.
A "little peach of punky power pop" thinks @dannykellywords.bsky.social (NME), "refreshingly raucous" says Mike Gardner (RM), and "like eating a tin of nails" for Richard Cook (Sounds).

So we have made it to the end of January 1986, the first month in the Indiepop Chronicles.
Given I started in July I may need to up the pace a little bit.

How are you all finding it? Any requests, suggestions?

I am all ears...
