Sweeping The Nation Covermount 8: '07 In The Shade

Before we do go Steventonwards, it's been a little while since we did one of these, and to be honest it wasn't meant to be this one at all - we've been working on a themed Covermount, which will now probably turn up in the middle of August. In the meantime, have this one on us. Again it's held on Sendspace, although let us know whether you're happy with it and its tendency to delete files without warning or whether you think you can cope with Rapidshare now or something similar.

So this is our selection of 21 summer anthems taken from releases so far this year. Be aware, though, that this is not a straight Best Of The Year So Far - these tracks most seem tailor made for your mp3 player lounging at the local park. There are many great albums and singles not featured here because, when it comes down to it, you don't really need your back yard barbeque soundtracked by the Twilight Sad or Battles. (Although, if you're reading this and have or know someone that owns one of those speaker-filled bass boosted high performance cars, throw out that second hand mixtape and play Mirrored in it. Pedestrians will shit themselves.) Have we had The Great 2007 Indie World Mini-Crossover Summer Anthem yet? In 2006 we were spoiled for choice - by this time last year we'd had Lloyd I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken and Pull Shapes, with Young Folks and Let's Make Love And Listen To Death From Above starting to attract radio attention and We're From Barcelona ominously on the horizon. This year? We're not so sure Foundations counts due to how that whole lemon business is splitting the nation, so we're stuffed. Or are we? Stick these on a CDR, go for a drive in a convertible (when it gets drier, and apparently we're coming towards the end of the really rainy season after seven or so weeks) and, well, enjoy yourself, it's hotter than you think.

Just been listening to this on my bike on the way to work. I can happily do without the LCD Soundsystem track (loved by journos and music nerds alike but I don't know anyone who enjoys his music) but the rest is great so far. I only had four of these tracks (Panda Bear, Lucky Soul, Modest Mouse and Field Music) so it also introduced me to some new stuff. Thanks again and keep it up.
