Eat Your Heart Out EPOrder Now
(8 tracks, 6 songs) the breakups hail from Hollywoodland, California. Their classic pop sensibility and adventurous arrangements have them working in the same musical milieu as other modern pop staples like The Shins, Fountains of Wayne, Elliott Smith, Nada Surf, Wilco, and Michael Penn. Combine those modern ideas with a love for the classic sound of Emitt Rhodes, The Clash, The Zombies, and a certain "B" band from Liverpool and you have the breakups special brand of "powerless pop." |
