The Courteeners will be releasing a non-album single on Oct 6th "That Kiss". This is their first single since their song "No You Didn't, No You Don't". back in June of this year. The Courteeners continue to grow their fanbase as well as they hook up with Stereophonics, whose "classic UK rock" has grown exponentially over the years, The Stereophonics are basking in the glory of their compilation album Decade In The Sun: The Best of Stereophinics, which includes work from their last six albums, five of which debuted at #1 on the UK charts, and 25 Singles reaching the top 40. This should give our buddies The Courteeners some more exposure, eh?
"That Kiss" can currently be bought on preorder right here.

Now, on to our mix. Our third installment of the weekend mix is a particularly good one and includes a lot of music from the UK, per usual. You may have perused our new music this week and noticed we were talked up Tokyo Police Club quite a bit. No album this year hit me quite the same as this one - its a singing, clap-fest of an album, filled with all of those earnest indie confections other bands can't seem to scrape up. Or maybe its just "Tessellate" that made it for me. I see no reason why this won't be a top 10 song for me this year.
Other groups to note on this list are Delorentos, whose song "Do You Realise" is one of our Songs of the Week this time around. Their song "Eustace Street" reminds me a bit of The Cinematics, who we were able to see open up for Mute Math last year. Also, check out Annual's "Sore". There's something truly unique about this song style, this song in particular keeps showing up on the good ol' iPod.
The longest song out of the bunch is Sonic Flyer's "Overseas", whose London, UK sound has been stuck in my head all week. The shimmering guitars and that little guitar diddy they do every minute or so make this song for me. And lastly, take a closer look at The Coast as well as The Courteneer's acoustic version of "Not Nineteen Forever". Enjoy the list!
