Wonderful acoustic session recorded for the french radio show “Faits Divers” on Radio Dijon Campus. This is an exclusive new song previously unrecorded from the next album. Jump on over to FD Sessions to watch Crocodiles play a Daniel Johnston cover as part of the same session.

Crocodiles accomplished a self confessed childhood dream recently and played at the Montreux Jazz Festival. The Montreux Jazz Café sessions captured two songs from the show plus a bit on an interview…

Following the release of 2009’s acclaimed ‘Summer Of Hate’ Crocodiles second album ‘Sleep Forever’ will be released soon on Fat Possum. The album was recorded by James Ford (Artic Monkeys, Klaxons) at Joshua Tree Studios, and promises to be just as raw as the last “I guess there was a small fear that because he is someone who produces hit records that he’d clean us up a lot, but he did a great job of keeping it raw.”

With only three years until we hit those troublesome teens it seems the naughties flew by in the blink of any eye yet a hell of a lot happened. Our jeans got tighter than the economy, we saw the slow death of “Indie” music and the emergency of something far more exciting and fresh.

Crocodiles are lo-fi new wave, featuring former members of The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower. We caught up with them on their 2009 UK tour, playing live at The Victoria, Mile End, London

Not Cool are a ‘gutter pop’ band born in the winter of 2008, semi-fresh from the sweet icebergs that were Lost Penguin and The Violets. These young twentysomething wanderers count severely divided genres as their influences. BeatCast caught up with them supporting Crocodiles at The Victoria, London
