Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - s/t debut
Anyone heard this band/album? Captainpoohat recommended them too me and I’m very thankful he did.
I can definitely feel the Neutral Milk Hotel comparisons a little. The vocal are delivered in a similar fashion to the Violent Femmes too. Incredibly melodic and uplifting… always making me smile. It is overtaking my own personal summertime 2005 pick (Envelopes) as the album to dance to while down the park on a Saturday afternoon.
Fav tracks? Hmmm, it’s a toughie but here goes. ‘In This Home On Ice’ has got to be one of THE pop tunes of the year. Layers of textured guitar making you feel all warm inside. ‘Over and Over Again’ with its jerky bass and simple synths, you would be forgiven for thinking Talking Heads had reformed… great stuff!
Anyone else into this?
