[1979]
Yellow Pills is at that perfect intersection of power pop and new wave. Chucking an unruly and abrasive synth into a slice of pure melodic guitar pop is a genius manoeuvre.
20/20 - Sheri [1979]
Also it's hard to deny this hook laden anthem. Melodic. Energetic. Electric.
20/20 - Tell Me Why (Can't Understand You) [1979]
This one's more on the mid tempo tip. So Beatle-esque it reaches ELO-like proportions. The infectious stuttered "T-T-T-T-Tell Me Why" chorus is peak new wave gloriousness. Concluding with lengthy psych interlude that includes spacey bass, backwards guitars, synth, spooky backmasked vocals and an epic fade out.
It's Friday night, Rewind Baby!
