Real Estate take us to balmy shores and sunny days on “Exactly Nothing”, taken from their most recent Days single, “Easy”. Its swirling array of fluttering guitars brings to mind both optimistic psychedelic-rock and college-rock, with some surf thrown in for good measure. The New Jersey-based rockers always sound like they’re vacationing on the West Coast, and “Exactly Nothing” is no different. Here’s to a great year for Real Estate… Days, our sixth favorite album of 2011, still gets plenty of spins.
