I really like the music in the opener "Like We Did Last Year," but the vocals are
lukewarm - just my opinion. The verse is cool, but the chorus is weak. The
jaunty-dark nature of "The Kids in this Town" reminds me of Morrissey. Somewhat
theatrical and flaunty, one imagines much swaying and jovial faces by the folks
playing and singing. Yet I'm kind of so-so on the whole thing. I feel like I want to
love it but it lacks just the unique punch it needs to pup it up to an Arcade-Fire
type whimsy. Fairly fun though.
Song of choice :
I like the sheer joy of "Dirty Jeans."
