Nothing to do with Peggy Lee’s sultry standard, this particular “Fever” comes from Aldous Harding, whose unique marshmallows-and-razor-blades sensibility makes for songs that leave you bleeding but which you crave again and again. Also tonight and also from New Zealand, a track from Garageland, one of my favorite underrated Kiwi bands of the ‘90s, which isn’t saying much because they were all underrated and they are all my favorites.

In this episode: !!!, A Place to Bury Strangers, Aldous Harding, Alt-J, American Analog Set, Andy Partridge, Aphex Twin, Belle and Sebastian, Calexico, Camera Obscura, Cavetown, Delta Spirit, Destroyer, Fatso, Fontaines D.C., Garageland, Gooseberry, The Greyboy Allstars, His Name Is Alive, Jack White, Jenny Toomey, Loop, The Mother Hips, THE ORAL CIGARETTES, Paul Collins and Marci Marks, The Presidents of The United States of America, Red Snapper, Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians, Shantel, Spiritualized, Stereophonics, The Stranglers, Subjects, Suki Waterhouse, Talking Heads, Thee Headcoats, They Might Be Giants, Tomandandy, Tonstartssbandht, Toro Y Moi
