With psychedelic keyboard lines, fuzz guitars and more enthusiasm than a kid at Christmas, it’s hard not to get wrapped up in Micragirls’ world. It may not be the most groundbreaking album you’ll hear this year, but that’s not always the point, is it.

Introducing: Houston Calls
Houston Calls get Introduced this week, their brand of punk fuelled power-pop just the thing on a Monday morning.
