If Modest Mouse spent a year in a Chuck E. Cheese ball pit, they might emerge sounding like the delightful Brooklyn quartet Bishop Allen. That's not to say that these indie-poppers aren't a serious band. On their debut, Charm School, the foursome blend sharp, jangly guitars with catchy melodies and big choruses. Songwriters Justin Rice and Christian Rudder write cheeky lyrics and layer their tunes with handclaps ("Charm School") and singalongs ("Ghosts Are Good Company"). And the band's carefree attitude, along with their musicianship, make Charm School as addictive as it is playful. Add drummer Margaret Miller and bassist Bonnie Karin, and they enter indie elite. Karin's ethereal backing vocals complement Rice's perfectly -- propelling already memorable tracks into charmed harmonic bliss.

当时差点因为他们土掉渣的海报错过这张好唱片 他们慵懒的声音欢快的音乐嘿嘿 让我再看这张傻海报时冒出了恶搞的意思。 "Empire City""Things are what you make of them",赞一个先~ 喜欢"Coupla Easy Things"的前奏。 喜欢喜欢满满的喜欢
