Back with just their third-ever single is Hey Again, and the new offering from the Brooklyn-based band is a wonderful slice of NY-state-sounding indie rock.
... a razor-sharp blast of NY-style indie rock. Laced with The Strokes swagger, Interpol's cool, danceable grit, and breakout energy.
Yes, the reference is that specific, as I can hear influences from the likes of Interpol, Vampire Weekend and especially The Strokes on this one, with the sharp guitar tone being one of the first things we latched onto.
There are obviously some gritty moments, with scorched guitars working in tandem with some danceable grooves that'll get you bopping along in no time. It's tight, concise and full of life; in short, this is a perfect intro to a band that sounds like they can break out of the scene in New York state and be big nationally.
