Today's Quick Mention: I saw the Kills
and Jeff The Brotherhood at Stubb's last night.
JFB were pretty great. As for the Kills, I
thought they were solid. Alison Mosshart
looked a little scary, but her voice sounded
fantastic ... especially on a stripped down version
of Patsy Cline's Crazy. Anyone else go?
I've never been a huge Cold War Kids fan, but here
and there a track like the one I have today will
come along and grab my attention. The band
just put it out recently in an effort to promote a
mini-tour they have coming up in Portland, Seattle,
and San Francisco. This means it doesn't call
a physical effort home, so grab it while you can.
Enjoy.
:Cold
War Kids - Minimum Day: Like most CWK songs, this has a nice hook and features a
breezy runtime that won't test your patience (or attention
span). What really got me about the track, though, was
the lo-fi feel of it. The band clearly didn't sit
around in the studio perfecting every bit of this, and I
kind of dig hearing them in a not so orchestrated fashion.
