Buffalo Tom were one of my favorite bands in the grunge boom that deservingly had a taste of success in the first part of the nineties. They were on hiatus for awhile, just to return with an overlooked, but very nice album Three Easy Pieces in 2007. They sounded like the time stood still. The new album is scheduled later this year and while we wait for it, they offered a free EP on their website. We also have Tomaz Pengov, an immensely talented singer-songwriter from Ljubljana who made in 1973 one of the greatest LPs in Yugoslavia. He is back with a collection of oddities, outtakes and recitations entitled Drevo in zvezda. The CD is accompanied with a book as well. Another singer-songwriter, Kurt Vile is also here with a new album. He currently gets a lot of praise for his work. And for something completely different, we also have a brand new single for Personal And The Pizzas.
