The History Of Apple Pie / Sweater Girls

September 26, 2010, 2 comments

Now that fall 2010 has introduced itself with a weekend of constant raining, I figure it’s about time for some painfully sweet indie pop to put a little smile on your face while you’re having your Sunday afternoon tea, melancholically gazing out of the window into the blurry grey something that used to be the sundrenched world you’ve spent your summer in. London’s The History Of Apple Pie (recently introduced by Yuck’s blog) and LA quintet Sweater Girls both are as twee as it gets, so it makes an awful lot of sense that the fresh and tiny London based tape label Cool In A Crisis is gonna put out a split cassette featuring the two bands very soon.

Listen to three of their charming tunes below, all being full of wonderful pop melodies complete with cute girls’ voices, jangling and fuzzed guitars and glockenspiel, in other words every ingredient we’ll never get tired of hearing since 1986. Seriously, this has made my day.
