Caribou
The new Caribou album came out this week. I bought it. It rules. When its first single “Melody Day” came out a month or so ago, I flipped my shit. It was the best non- R. Kelly-related song I had heard in 2007. It was probably the only time I have every bumped a CD single in my car on repeat. While “Melody Day” is the highlight of the album, I’m also very fond of the song “She’s the One”. If any song on the album shows the progress in songcraft that Dan Snaith has made, this is it. It has the lovely post-electronic psychedelia that he’s a master of, but in service of a song that could just as easily been done by the Beach Boys.
