Buffalo

Hotly-tipped Kiwis The Phoenix Foundation have spent 14 long years flooding their native Wellington with dreamy indie, but with fourth album Buffalo, we reckon they'll rise more than a few cries of "Where have you been all my life?" from dwellers of the northern hemisphere. Once you've sampled the Fleet Foxes-esque psych-rock on their new record, you may enjoy the soundtrack they wrote for 2007 film Eagle vs Shark, which stars none other than the tall one from Flight Of The Conchords.
