The Wind-Ups Drop Cheer Up

If you need your hair blown back today, might I suggest you try on this fresh track from the Wind-Ups? It begins with a spoken sample and a growling gurgle of guitar beneath the surface; the marching tone sets the tune afloat, letting you kind of bounce your body in step with each snap of the snare. But, at 40 seconds, they jump down on the pedals, erupting with this huge wash of noise and volume, driving home both an adoration of noise and pop hooks. You’ve got to stick around too for a little while, as they’re expertly throwing plot twists into their songwriting, like the hook-laden section just after the 2 minute mark. Crank this one loud, and grab a copy of Confection from Dandy Boy Records.
