Camera Obscura
One of the bands lucky enough to be Stateside before the Icelandic volcano eruption cut off flights from the U.K., Scottish indie poppers Camera Obscura were counting their blessings when we caught up with them at Coachella. “We do feel for them because that’s the sort of shit that would happen to us!” said keyboardist Carey Lander with a laugh.
Under the Radar sat down with the ladies of Camera Obscura—Lander and bandleader Tracyanne Campbell—to chat further about acts of God, record sales, and why Yo La Tengo might hold the key to their future (maudlin) career.

This band has been one of the best bands in the recent times. I love the way they put up things together. I can’t wait for their next album.

Yes I feel that this is perhaps one of the most talented and best band of late. I have been following this band from a long time. I am waiting for their next concert which was due to be held in London next week.
