Before heading out to Pioneer Park yesterday afternoon, I decided to give the new Cut Copy track a spin while driving around in the hot sun. It’s a great summer jam to let loose with the windows down; cruising around to the thumping beats, exuberant hand claps, and joyful harmonies. It’s actually a complete 180 compared to the unabashed dance mentality of 2008′s In Ghost Colours. Still, the guys know how to craft a good pop song, and I welcome any kind of change the new album brings to the table.
The wait for that new album might be a while, despite us getting a taste right now in the middle of summer. The still untitled album isn’t due until early next year, but in the meantime the guys have just begun a tour with dates around Europe followed by Australia.
