UNKNOWN PLEASURES : CLAMS

Come on, aren't we brilliant even if we say it ourselves?
Why, simply as we present you now some of the greatest shoegazestuff we heard in ages (not entirely true, but certainly the best shoegaze of the week) and it comes from Japan.
Well, Japanese shoegazers they do exist too, you know...
On the Finderpop-label (no me neither) they recently released the very fine mini-album "Sakura River" and if you like Lush with My Bloody Valentine-guitars well then...well perhaps then you might write to Japan who knows...
Be aware that there are several bands out there named Claws but there only seem to be one worth checking out, the Japanese one of course...
