• Tipp: Pomegranates - Everybody, Come Outside

Nachdem es Fanfarlo mit "Reservoir" sogar geschafft hat Platte des Monats Februar zu werden und The Antlers "Hospice" über den Klee gelobt wurden, will ich euch wieder eine wirklich gute Newcomer Indie Pop Platte ans Herz legen: Pomegranates "Everybody, Come Outside!"
Die Gitarrenspiele erinnern teilweise sehr an Foals. Der Sound ist aber viel komplexer und nicht so die "Drauf Hau" wie Foals. Alle BiologInnen klicken bitte den Punkt vor Tipp ;)

Hier der Text auf der myspace Seite: "Everybody, Come Outside! is the shimmering and dreamy new album from Cincinnati art-pop denizens, Pomegranates. This Cincinnati quartet broke on the scene last year with their debut full length, Everything Is Alive--an album that garnered immediate attention and support from music lovers and taste-makers alike. KEXP and WOXY, among others, fell for the band's quirky and charming blend of pop rock, and listeners followed suit, blogging the band up to 11 on Elbo.ws blog aggregate. The band also caught the attention of their peers. Artists such as French Kicks and Islands responded to Pomegranates' dynamic live set by inviting them out on the road. Everybody, Come Outside! shows a marked improvement both creatively and sonically from its predecessor, channeling influences that range from Talking Heads and Brian Eno, to French Kicks and Fela Kuti. It's a conceptual album of sorts, weaving an interesting tale of a man who leaves home, only to be abducted by a time traveler. Each of the 11 tracks of ECO! add to the mystique, as well as reveal a bit more about this unusual tale. Pomegranates is Jacob Merritt (drums, percussion), Joey Cook (vocals, guitar, keys, bass), Josh Kufeldt (bass, electric guitar) and Isaac Karns (guitar, bass, sampling, vocals, keys). Everybody, Come Outside! was recorded by Pomegranates and mixed and mastered by TJ Lipple of Aloha (MGMT, Headlights, Minus Story). Everybody, Come Outside! drops worldwide April 14, 2009 on Lujo Records." thankscaptainobvious.net
