White Denim - Last Days of Summer
Reviewed by yewknee
I'll let you in a secret — I always think I know what to expect from White Denim and they almost always surprise me. So, when they release a record of odds and ends (for free no less), I had no idea what I was getting into. Turns out, it's mostly a balance of their frantic energy from the first record and the drawn out jammy nature of the second; with a heavy dose of 70's style pop rock thrown in. That is to say, it's incredibly pleasant and enjoyable. These guys have a slickness that is lost in the manic energy of the live show. I will probably listen to this record 100 times without realizing it. "Tony Fatti" is my jam. [whitedenimmusic.com]
