Possible Humans Drop Standing Around Alive

There were so many good records that came out on Friday, from new the new Massage to the Telephone Numbers LP, but one that I probably didn’t give enough attention to in the lead-up was the new LP from Possible Humans. The Melbourne outfit has been mostly quiet since their brilliant Everything Split, delivering some of the best guitar pop you’ll get to hear this year. In their songwriting, they typically take a solid bit of propulsive rhythm and lock it into something special, letting it settle into that locked groove so that the guitars can spit out their delightful harmonies. There’s nine track of energetic indie rock jams, and they waste no time, so from “Slouching Hat” to “Akimbo,” you’re going to get the ultimate pop reward! Out now via Hobbies Galore.
