Three more acts worth checking out
GIRLS NAMES
Yet more magnificence from the north Belfast duo Cathal Cully and Neil Brogan (who also runs the Cass/Flick label). The boys hit all the right spots with their blurry, surfy, jangly noisy melodies.

MOUNTAIN MAN
Awesome folky tunes from three Bennington, Vermont ladies who have more harmonies at their disposal than any one band should really be allowed to possess. Debut 10-inch single coming soon.

O. CHILDREN
Name on loan from a Nick Cave song (and better than Bono Must Die, the name some members used to trade under), O. Children are about splendidly gloomy and gothy post-punk rackets. We're digging Dead Disco Dancer.
