Still Flyin' are back with a sneak peek of their latest full-length On a Bedroom Wall.
Through their continual shape-shifting, the San Francisco-based band have added a heavy dose of synth to their chant-laden party jams and arrived at the infectious pop of On a Bedroom Wall, due for release on May 18.
First single 'Cleat Talking' provides the perfect first taste. Built around a repetitive, rhythmic backbone, and with layers of free percussion and summery marimbas, Still Flyin' restate their life-affirming hammjamm credo, letting us know that you don't gotta be no super brain to have a good time — just grab some pals, some brews and a pair of cleats, and you're all set!

For those among us who are like, "what the hell's a cleat?"...

And with the AFL footy season fast approaching (not to mention the NFL Superbowl, FA Cup and probably a whole lot of other fun outdoor activities), Still Flyin' are running a competition, giving you the chance to do it up in style IN YOUR VERY OWN PAIR OF CUSTOM-MADE STILL FLYIN' CLEATS!

We are extremely excited to welcome The Wedding Present to Lost And Lonesome! Their much-anticipated eighth studio album Valentina will be released in Australia and New Zealand on Friday, March 23.
The new album was recorded by the group in France, California and Brighton, UK during 2011 and mixed by Andrew Scheps [whose past credits include Metallica, Iggy Pop and Johnny Cash]. Propelled by founding member David Gedge’s perpetual broken heart and incisively brazen lyrics, Valentina turns a fresh page on the band’s noisy guitar pop tradition — one that has inspired several generations of canny pop fans and indie rock bands alike since their 1985 inception.
To celebrate the release of Valentina, The Wedding Present will be making their first ever visit to Australia this April, playing shows in Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne. As extra icing for fans, the band will be performing their classic album Seamonsters live, in its entirety. The Wedding Present recorded Seamonsters with Steve Albini in 1991.

We're delighted to announce the highly anticipated third album from Melbourne's experimental-classic-pop master-sculptor Francis Plagne. On his latest campaign, entitled Tenth Volume of Maps, Plagne and his band create a sonically rich palette with a more focused live-in-the-studio feel than his earlier work, which relied heavily on field recordings and tape splicing. Re-pledging his commitment to the song form with his snappiest album to date, Tenth Volume of Maps reasserts Plagne's fascination with the interplay of melody and rhythm, while also allowing the songs to unfold, develop, and mutate along unpredictable trajectories.

Tenth Volume of Maps is available in shops on October 7 through Fuse in Australia, Darla in the US and Cargo in the UK.
