A new track from Extreme Sports Club, “Congratulations!” evolves with a feverish, melodic appeal. Lush guitars and strings concoct a mystique-filled opening, perking upon the “no way, no way,” vocal burst. Here, brassy flourishes and vocal harmonizing converge for a delightfully hooky enamoring. A title-touting robotic flash signals the entry of a debonair guitar solo, adding to the eclectic rock feeling — marked by charismatic vocals, glistening strings, and exuberant brass.
