Some time ago … 3 years?!? (have we been doing this for 3 years?) I emailed (don’t think we’d made it blogs yet) a track called ‘Brains’ by Lower Dens. I loved it, I loved the understated album. They’re back and I am quite happy to announce not much has changed … in a good way? I think so.
Here is ‘Brains’ from 2012

I like this. It reminds me of Real Estate in some way (still love Days), but in a good way. Might check this lot out.
Not doing a lot for me. They sound like the Strokes gone pop. Am I missing something?
Fair enough David. Stacey thinks this sounds typical me … like they can’t be arsed to actually play/sing. Bit like the Strokes I guess 🙂 oh and I thought the Strokes were pop?
Its interesting as Stacey makes massively astute observations of what I like / don’t like that I miss all the time. Its like having a 2nd mind 🙂
Caroline’s like that too. It’s nice having a 2nd pair of ears to critique your choices!
Yep, she’s not to be underestimated, Dr Story has some good ears!
