Tokyo Police Club


Havn't updated in a while, but I've been LOADED with exams lately: Finals, APs, SATs and all that lovely stuff.

But what has kept me going is Tokyo Police Club's new-ish album: Elephant Shell


With its catchy electronic beats, hinting xylophones, and pop undertones, it gives just the right amount of perk and optimism to my day. I know that older fans are complaining that this album doesn't have the raw feel that it had of the past ones such as A Lesson In Crime, or its EP Smith, but nevertheless, this album still is still great. Definitely check out Your English Is Good, Juno, and Tesselate, my favorites from this album. Also I found Box, from their EP Smith to be really good, with a Stroke-esque feel to it.
