The Atom Spies - And Their Treacherous Pop On Microdot 12"

November is Cake month, the label that also brought us some nice stuff of Pigbros.
Here's the first one and one of the most hard-to-find too. Can't find a lot of info on them but you can watch some good live stuff on youtube if you care. Too bad this is their only release.

The Wait - Cry (Without Tears) 7"

UK wave band with female vocals. They also appeared on the 'Not Waving But Drowning' comp. LP (posted on Mutant Sounds). The Wait also contributed to the 'Primitive Package' Comp. 7" and also released a 2-song 7" flexi in 1985. They also appear (posthumously I guess) on the French 'Unreleased Volume 2' comp. album.
Any extra info welcome.

Toylets - It's Like A Daydream, Exploding Again LP

Thanks to bX-59cppw for this generous gift. bX--59cppw won't continue updating his/her blog because of other priorities but will provide some stuff here or on fellow bloggers Capa Nostra Syndicate and Systems Of Romance.
Always wanted to score a copy of the Toylets album but never got around to do it. It's actually the easiest to find. This is off course the same band that released 2 singles as The Toilets, on Top Hole as well.
A pretty great album with a strong influence of The Cure.
The 'An Unspoiled Land' 7" can be found in the blogworld but I would like to hear their 1st 7" 'Boxjunction'. They also have 1 track on a comp. flexi with Social Security and Op De Koffie Band.
Top Hole was also responsible for the Qua Dance 7" and various records of The Visitor. Those can be found on No Longer Forgotten Music.

It's Like A Daydream, Exploding Again LP (Top Hole Records - TH 03-1982)
1. Labi
2. An Unspoiled Land
3. From One Second To Ninety Days
4. Ancient Places
5. Home
6. Sehnsucht
7. These Evenings
8. Marble Arch House
9. In Your Arms
10. It's Like A Daydream, Exploding Again

Blue Sound - Nouvelle Creature LP

Just got this one in and some people asked me if I could post it so here it is.
One of those French bands I know nothing about. The French Wave site doesn't have any info as well.
'Nouvelle Creature' is a pretty good album although a bit short. Wouldn't call it coldwave but it has elements. 'Blue Day' is an instrumental synthdrone piece.
Blue Sound is a nice surprise if you never heard them before.

Nouvelle Creature LP (Grav Master One-18752-1983)
1. New Creature
2. Sixty Nine
3. Outside
4. Blue Day
5. Dame De Coeur
6. Hot Wave
7. Why
8. Berlin
