So Yesterday (08/03/2009) I listened to all three albums and then again and again...you get the picture. I don't know if I have ever listened to three albums of the same band in one day and not got bored in any way. I was more intrigued.
They remind me of Modest Mouse ferlating the Sorry Kisses whilst at a party by The Shins. A combination of debauchery I wish I was apart of.
The music is, if you will, down the line power pop/indie/rock. Nothing weird, nothing too heavy. The lyrics though are just fantastic and this isn't the 'new car smell', it is genuine and I honestly think I have found one of the greatest bands on the planet, for me.
'Sing Me Spanish Techno' is supposedly, when he asked his girlfriend to speak Spanish and she only knew the language from her "Spanish Techno records". The song seems to be happy go lucky rogue who has maybe done some regrettable things in the past and someone got caught up in it, maybe a love. 'The Slow Descent into Alcoholism' is a guy unable to do the simplest things due to his heart being broken which has resulted in getting wasted all the time a.k.a alcoholism.
Anyway don't take my word for it (or do).
Go and enjoy them and change your life.
