UP AND COMING: PANGEA
Pangea are a band from California, which you can tell as their music is not just this incredible lo-fi skewed out crazy garage pop weirdness, but is really sunny in a way as well as fucking dark. I'm not going to lie it took me a while to get into them. I first listened to a few tracks off their album 'Living Dummy' (look below) and I liked their songs but soon forgot about them, a few weeks later I made myself listen to the whole thing, as I was just accumulating music and not listening to it, a bad pattern that it's hard to get out of by the way. Back to the point, after listening to the whole thing through I proceeded to listen to it almost every day for the next month. It is just killer.
Cool video for one of their songs:

More about the band themselves, they hail from California as I mentioned and their first 'proper album', as they say,was released by Burger Records, home of notable garage acts such as Ty Segall and the Black Lips who you might have heard of (we'll most definitely be writing about them so don't worry if you haven't). They have also recently released and EP called 'Killer Dreams' which is different from 'Living Dummy' but equally as awesome. From what I've seen they've been getting a lot of attention on blogs and the internet lately, so we're not the quickest off the mark in that respect but I just had too many good things to say about them that I needed to get them out. Please check them out, something from their bandcamp is below, click, listen, buy, then listen more. It'll blow your mind.
