Even if you’re not easily led astray by tropical aesthetics, still worth getting your ears around this new track by Melbourne’s Them Swoops. Precisely the pleasant seasonal antidote for warm summer days ahead. If you’ve spent most of the year enjoying jangly bands bitch and moan about work and chix and shitty sharehouse suburbia in lo-fi like I have, then this track is a nice cruisy fizzer for yr ginger beer. The two (sometimes four) piece have just wrapped up recording their debut EP Glimmers with LA based mixpert Mark Needham (Cake, The Killers, Chris Isaak [!], Shakira [!!!]) on sound duties. The guys are rounding up their ‘Triple Treat’ tour with pals Argentina and Tokyo Denmark Sweden at the Workers Club in Melbourne this Friday 26th Oct. Get along. If you’re drunk enough, they might even play Liztomania.
