A bit over a month ago, “Coming On Strong” impressed with its confident sound, showing a variety of hook-y comparisons to my mind at least (“…the synth-tinged color of Cut Copy, the crisp punch of Hot Chip, and the infectious Brit-pop tribute tendency of acts like Dent May.”) With a suave electronic and funk component being prominent on the very rhythm-heavy “Coming On Strong”, it’s also worthwhile to find the band at its more guitar-centric, as is the case on the excellent “Cigarette Buzz”. Fuzzier and more rock-forward, it’s a fantastic rock anthem with a deliciously soaring chorus that’s hard not to catch a buzz from.
