Essential EP from up and coming band 28 Sep 2009
By 221b BakerSt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Listeners who were sold on Brooklyn band The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart's combination of droning fuzzy guitar/Wall of Sound rock and jangle/twee pop will find this EP, which features four new songs along some remixes, to be pretty much required listening. The songs, most of which have been staples of their live show, are as good as anything on their debut record, released earlier this year. The title track may be my favorite song by them so far, in fact, and the EP's got a stellar remix done by none other than Saint Etienne. That song and the other highlight here, "Falling Star," in particular have a strong 80's feeling to them, while "103' and "Twins" owe a debt to both 80's Jesus and Mary Chain and 90's bands like My Bloody Valentine. I think I actually enjoy this EP better than I did the LP; at any rate, this will be a band I will be paying special attention to from now on.
