The Sweet Boys - Foible Pangs

[Techboy]

hahaha Mexi... you've given me a lot of time to plan said payback!

What goes on Sauchiehall street, stays on Sauchiehall street

Holy shit, how have I missed this time and time again?

Some stuff off of this album really sounds like older Tame Impala. But really, this is fucking amazing.

Have you guys done anything with this? Have you send this to Record Labels? This is some world class shit!

[Mexicola]

Sadly they split last summer. Almost criminal in my opinion.

Well that's a shame. This album is so good, they could have really gone somewhere.

Listened to this album today for the first time. Transfixed for the entire duration. Strong King of Limbs era Radiohead vibe on a few tracks. Sweet Girls is MBV and SoTL having a baby! Really great album that I feel privileged to have in my collection now!

aah...where do i send my money?!

He said hello by the way. Think he's jealous we're off back to Knoydart;-)

Im pretty jealous too. It was a bloody good suggestion of Techboy`s to go there, speaking of which and quite randomly, there should be a passport sized photo of him hidden behind a seashell. See if you can find it haha.

Im giving this album a proper listen now, finally. Its fecking great so far.

[Mexicola]

Ha ha ha!!! Twoism treasure hunt is it?!? Can see that causing hilarity after a few drams.

[Goiter Sanchez]

The older 'II' EP which I just purchased from their Bandcamp is, likewise, not to be missed; really beautiful! Crazy how few people have heard this material when it is so excellent... Makes you wonder how much amazing material is out there languishing on the Bandcamp pages of talented musicians with no business acumen...

[fujee]

Cranked this album tonight while I cooked dinner, was fucking great.

[Dandegyrecorder]

it's fuckin TIGHT

Bumping this thread because Mexi turned me onto them 30 minutes ago and my jaw dropped. I have a small list of favorite releases from Twoism and this is UP THERE.

[The Telepathic Kid]

I still listen to this on the regular.

[adecentman]

Glad that y'all are still feelin' it after all these years! ;D

Perhaps one day there'll be a Sweet Boys reunion. In the meantime, Kevin (lead singer + guitarist) has been busy crafting new songs for other projects, so once he's put something out to the world I'll definitely make it available on Twoism, the Sweet Boys' first & only internet home away from home.

Thanks for listening!

[Mexicola]

You know what? I'd probably travel as far for a Sweet Boys reunion as I would for a BOC gig, and I don't say that lightly either.

Thanks for posting, Mexi!

The above video is a little glimpse into last year's reunion in Canada. We're heading out once more in a few weeks, but with live visuals & an 8-channel speaker system in a proper hall. For anyone out in big ol' Alberta...

[Mexicola]

...checks flights to Alberta...
