women as well as Gentlemen, I bring you The album of the Year.
“Europe,” the second album by the Scottish band Allo Darlin’, is the most original, infectious, wholly independent pop album I’ve heard in year. The morons at Wikipedia phone call it twee. The Pitchfuck snobs provided it an 8.5, which is high for them however low for this record. ‘Cause it’s a perfect 10.
The band is brainchild of an Aussie named Elizabeth Morris, who, together with a few other musicians I”m sure you’ve never heard of, is that rarest of pop musicians: A innovative force. Pop is pop since it feels immediately familiar, as well as although many of the uptempo tunes on this record do in shape that bill, they at the exact same time are crisp, wonderful, as well as fresh.
And if you order it now, you can likewise get a perk EP with covers of Springsteen as well as the Ramones, together with my absolute preferred ad song, entitled “Wu Tang Clan.” Not sure where to send you for that deal, though…Sorry.
