The Bittersweet Between My Teeth

I'm not dead. Just critically maimed. Recovery should take a couple more weeks. In the meantime, posts will be few and far between. Cope.

At the moment, I am listening a lot to The Naked And Famous, whose track 'Young Blood' has probably been the definitive summer anthem within the blogosphere this year.

Occupying a point on the musical spectrum somewhere between M83 and Passion Pit, the New Zealand band craft hazy electropop that's tailor-made to soundtrack that most fabled experience of youth, The Best Summer Ever™.

Buoyed by youthful exuberance, their music is also imbued with a certain wistfulness - a kind of resignation that things will never be this good again.

I dig.
