Model Village / Lipstik Lipsing (Dufflecoat CDEP)

The latest Dufflecoat Records split EP (you know the score, 2 songs by 2 different bands from around the world - this time the UK and Indonesia) starts off with the country-ish pop of Model Village on "Hang up's goodbye". "Perfect scale replica" has a pleasing relaxed vibe and packs plenty classic indie pop goodness, reminds me a bit of Even As We Speak.

Lipstik Lipsing's "early express" has a chorus to die for after a long and careful build-up, all the hallmarks of a great pop tune and it is, early favourite of mine on this EP. Finally "suburban love" has some interesting sounds, its a beautiful pop tune. Yeah another winner. The world of indie pop is great, welcome to the world!
