ROTW: Nothing Valley!

For this Week's Record Of The, we've selected a slice of noisy, female-fronted indie pop that Andee thinks sounds a bit like The Swirlies if they were on Skin Graft. Kind of looks like a Skin Graft disc too, what with the comic strip cover art and all.

It's the first full-length, Nothing Valley, from Chicago's oddly/pleasantly named Melkbelly, which came out not quite a month ago on Wax Nine Records as that new label's premiere release.

Allan agrees with Andee's assessment, but if he had to provide his own 'band math' description, it would be that a lot of this makes him think of, like, The Breeders jamming with Lightning Bolt.

Solidly catchy and chaotic stuff, see (hear) for yourself...
