New Music - Bombay Bicycle Club 'Shuffle' (Island, 2011)
Caught me by surprise - sunny, insistent indie earworm.
Prior to being arrested by this new track from the upcoming Bombay Bicycle Club album, I wouldn't have given the band the time of day. I'd put in the file marked Landfill Indie and was happy to ignore them.
However, having heard this track on the radio a few times, it's really grown on me. It's a rolling, insistent slice of summer indie pop, driven along by an almost Steve Reich-ian piano line, delicious falsetto harmonies and a very catchy ascending chorus.
Very lovely.
