I just wrote a mailout…Jurassic Park Sweaters anyone?
And it seemed to be pretty slap bang RAD, so I thought I’d slap it on the blog too. That’s lazy jourmalism right, but honest this baby has got so many free tracks, awesome things and general fun in it… It seemed silly not to! I guess the key things to take from it are that you must come and see us at SWN label market if you happen by… That we have lots of bloody awesome bands… You are great… AND WE NOW RETAIL SWEATERS INSPIRED BY BLOODY JURASSIC PARK*
do buy one…
=================================
1.) Jurassic Park Sweater. Clever Alcopop!
2.) Bear Cavalry 8 track EP for sale, with poster
3.) Brand (ish) new signing… Oh No! Yoko
4.) Screaming Maldini on XFM
5.) New Johnny Foreigner track. Naughty Johnny Foreigner
===================================
1.) Inspired by the best moment of the 90′s/scene of film history – may we introduce our new sweaters. Simple, Sexy, Packed with full in your face Velociraptor, there’s not a awful lot to say about these badboys, other than buying this will make you instantly more popular…. Do so here. I can’t honestly tell you how much we at Alcopop! love Jurassic Park. Hope you love Jurassic Park too – now slap it on your chest Perfect for winter too. It’s getting cold out there, and these are lovely, good quality warm Gildan. Don’t freeze out there…! (picture below)
2.) 8 Tracks?! On an EP for a fiver… Surely not? Well, sort of. This cracking EP from fizzy Gosport heroes Bear Cavalry is a lush, well groomed 4 track of an EP on CD, but also contains a download card with 4 extra acoustic tracks included for you. It also comes with super nice lyric poster, and should you care to try before you buy as t’were, check out this free split they released with Crushing Blows. Free download? Oh sure x
3.) And did we tell you we’d signed a new band. Ushering in the first of our moose-hugging bretheren from Canada, please welcome the MIGHTY Oh No Yoko! An absolute lesson in what makes super fun, stripped back, laid out math pop. A debut 7″ is following later this month with a 35 date tour (London on the 9th November) – but in the meantime, check this track out. It’s insanely good!
4.) Screaming Maldini have been busy too, and their recent whacked out awesome feel-good hit of the post summer, Summer, Somewhere has been seeing lots of online love, and a session with the lovely John Kennedy on XFM. Whatsmore, Matt Berry (he of the IT Crowd) has remixed it too. What a champ x Album next year… Just MAYBE! (So excited)
5.) And johnny foreigner are in the doghouse after yesterday releasing a track from their brand new Names EP (available in the shop as a bevvy of card-backed badges out at the end of the month) without telling the adults first! Luckily, as they’re on a whistle-stop tour of the UK and America and the song is literally mindblowing, we have forgiven them. Listen and download free here, and realise why they need a permanent residence in your heart!
So that’s all for now chaps but as ever, we love you. We need you. We care. Anyone at SWN by the way? – we’re heading down tomorrow and have a stall at the label market on Saturday and would love a beer with you (probably. Unless you’re horrible. And if you were, you wouldn’t be reading this!)

* Obviously these sweaters are in no way endorsed by, official products of or licencsed by Jurassic Park. Just borne out of massive love for the best film ever made.
New Screaming Maldini single ‘Life in Glorious Stereo’
Well if it is’nt those cheeky Maldini boys and girls again – dominating your airwaves with a super ice-mint cool and fresh new single 
Lovely and all positive, it’s all digital ‘Life in Glorious Stereo’ – released today with splendid video! An ideal taster to their forthcoming debut album due out later in the year (which certainly won’t be all digital, we promise you that).
Here’s where I get press releasy – but you need to know this stuff right: By combining five-part vocal harmonies and lyrics that read like something out of a long-lost Brothers Grimm note book, with trumpets, organs, strings, glockenspiels, guitars, drums, percussion, bass, and piano, they’ve created the most epic pop hooks and choruses imaginable, and they’re on a march to claim your love.
The video is lovely too – and the Sheffield-based PoPsters are all in focus ready for your fine eyes to view. ps – they love you an all…
Screaming Maldini: SONG FOR ENGLAND!
They may not be the obvious band to pen this year’s funnest football anthem… But those wonderfully melodic, pop-fuelled trail-blazers Screaming Maldini, fresh from Sheffield, have surely scored the winner (and that’s enough footballing clichés for now) with this catchy single!
Utilising their own slick pop sensibilities and taking a little inspiration from our favourite 90’s film, Jurassic Park (see if you can hear it), they’ve created Tyrannosaurus Kicks (Just Score a Goal) – a massive melody-strewn single available on all of your favourite download sites… But completely free until England bow out of the tournament – and hell, if they win it, it will be free forever!
The video is lovely too – with Maldini masquerading as a shambolic England 5-a-side team playing the local T-Rex squad in a massive encounter. Zidane-style headbutts, chicken-gnawing dinosaurs at half time and an over-zealous referee are all key highlights.
