28 Dec 2014Tokyo Police Club—Argentina (Parts I, II, and III)
At almost 9 minutes, this is not your typical Tokyo Police Club in length. But it’s a pastiche of the various styles that Tokyo Police Club have introduced over their past few albums. You’ve got the driving drum beat, sing songy vocal harmonies, hand claps, synths, and the really ragged, fast guitars that make up their sound.
It sounds like a lot; it sounds overwhelming. It’s not. It’s a fun continuum of a pop songs that take you through the hunt for a relationship. Tokyo Police Club make danceable pop music that you can tell your friends is rock music. Isn’t that all you really need?
