A great unsigned shoegaze band from Melbourne Oz ,which it would seem is just one guy (Marc Regueiro-Mckelvie) with a few other people when he needs them for live shows! All fuzzed out guitars and sparkley twanging with slurred shouting/whispering! Shuting eyes, warm and fuzzy! A one man My Bloody Valentine! New release "Action" was Waves At Nights 'song of the week' a few weeks ago! And you can download it from there!
HedgeHog are a power pop trio from China, two boys one girl that briefly featured in a VBS TV Music World documentary.
Atom(阿童木) plays the drums better than Meg White, but only just, and the two guys Box(博宣) and Zo(子健) make an ultra melodic shoegazey Sonic Youth/Pavement indie noise that sticks in your head like glue covered chopsticks. I could describe their history but their website does it better:
"In the spring of 2007 they make contract with ModernSky which is the most famous independent music company in china. When ZO BoX and ATOM met each other in January 2005 they decided to make a fantastic band named "HedgeHog". These Beijing Boys&Girl who create simple, hooky songs have become the sexy point of the BigCity. And the record [HAPPY IDLE KID] which released in 2006 greatly hit the Chinese conservational Rock&Roll"
They released Noise Hit World in 2007 and now they have a new record out this month called Blue Daydream. Check it!
