What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Phil feeling happy.

Woohoo! Static Caravan action. A new single in by WINDMILL which I believe is their debut. If I paid more attention I'm sure I'd be more informative. This red vinyl 7" wonder is quite 'Flaming Lipsy Wayne Coyne' style pop music. It's quirky pop alright. It's got the wonky voice style of Wayne Coyne and musically it's like one of the more serious Flaming Lips tunes. That's about as much as I can think of that one. I struggled with this review...

What the label says:

Windmill is the recording name of 26-year old Matthew Thomas Dillon. Born and raised in Newport Pagnell, Bucks, now residing in Bedfordshire, this home counties boy makes music that stands up against the greats of American indie, with echoes of Built To Spill, Modest Mouse and Mercury Rev pervading his classic, piano-led songcraft. Windmills debut release Racing/Tokyo Moon is both beautiful and broken, sung in a tortured hue thats somewhere between Wayne Coyne and Neil Young but, at the same time, all his own.

About the humble 7":

The humble 7" is the smallest of the vinyl formats (not including the ridiculous 5") and it's the perfect medium for transporting a couple of new songs by up and coming bands straight into your ears. They're fun and they take up less space in your house than something bigger would. They come in a plethora of exciting colours and fantastical packages, and you can fit about 14 minutes onto one 7". You may have to get up every few minutes to put a new record on but think of the exercise. Don't forget every record you buy plays at least 2 speeds (depending on your stereo) and you need to play all records on all speeds to get the maximum joy from your purchase.
