Searching Bandcamp for "Easter" has thrown up quite different results to previous searches that, on the face of it, might be thematically similar. There's quite a lot of techno songs with Easter in the title; ditto long moody synth pieces. But I've chosen to eschew those for today's random threesome.
Mydolls have been around since 1978, apparently, plying their post-punk trade out of Houston, Texas. They even made it into the Wim Wenders film Paris, Texas, though not with this track, Easter.
I love the name Basement Kirk - it conjures the idea of a cut-price starship captain, does it not? Snow on Easter Monday has literate lyrics and a vaguely Byrdsy feel to the opening bars. Not what I expected from a Berlin three-piece.
The Sisters hail from Morehead in Kentucky. Easter Sunday dates from 2014, yet is still undecided what it wants to be: soft, ballady MOR or rock wig-out... so it has a bit of both.
Three Randcamp choices for your Easter. Which, if any, do you find egg-cellent?
I was rather taken with Basement Kirk, though I hope their song doesn't come true.
