Things went a bit flat for Canadian troupe the Bicycle circa 2009. So much so that it seemed as if they had drawn their last breath. Thankfully there was resilience behind their sweeping indie pop façade and the band, who have been around since the turn of the century, have just turned out a brand new LP called ‘Stop Thinking So Much’. And it is a really pretty affair, kicking off as it means to go on with ‘Appalachian Mountain Station’. They list the Apples in Stereo as one of their primary influences but in this instance they sound like a Mimi Parker led Low number. Consequently it is as unhurried as can be and circles on that persuasive melody. KD
