LP (Item 613582) Fat Possum, 2012 — Condition: New Copy

Modern avant pop from Brooklyn with love for the 80s post-punk and post-disco gamechangers – dancefloor ready acts from Liquid Liquid to ESG to Tom Tom Club – though done with a hooky, contemporary vibe! It's irresistible stuff to us – we couldn't shrug it off, even if we tried to. Lovely feminine vocals and a breezy pace keeps the Friends vibe inviting all the way through, though underneath that is a diverse bed of instruments and influences. Friends draws from the same pool of influences as a ton of their hip peers, but to us, Friends pull it with a lot more charm. Titles include "Friend Crush", "Home", "A Life", "Ruins", "Proud/Ashamed", "Sorry", "A Think Like This", "Ideas On Ghosts", "Stay Dreaming" and "Mind Control". (Includes download for full album.)  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
