Ireland's No Monster Club takes verbose, twitchy indiepop to the next level on their latest single, “(I Think You Could Only Get Away With This Carry On When You're In) The Sun”, whose only match is in the wordiness of Fiona Apple's most recent release. The group utilizes slick joyful harmonies with both high-hitting female voices and straightforward male vocals to craft the perfect filter for advice about smiling and admonishment about spotty efforts. (They say the best counsel is given with a spoonful of honey, right?) The group shows that they're thinking deeper than the average pop outfit, mixing surfy guitar lines with intricately written lyrics, as well as a clap-along backbeat that pushes the song through to its crashing end.
The track comes from the upcoming No Monster Club album, Foie Gras, which releases on their Bandcamp on December 13. You can find that here, and if you order before the 18th, the band will send you a Christmas card. A happy holiday, indeed.
