Broken Social Scene Shares Hey Amanda

My wife and I are super excited about the return of Broken Social Scene, and in fact, we’ve already bought tickets to their Austin return this summer. On my end, I’m definitely appreciative of their sonic return, particularly as their new single pulls from their old-school strategy of songwriting. It kicks off nice and gentle, sort of a trickling bit of folk-pop, punctuated by some little bits of horn work in the background. Then, as it crosses the one minute mark the track erupts into a joyous explosion, employing trademark harmonizing to the maximum effect. We’ve heard two track from Remember the Humans, and I’ll admit this one is my favorites thus far; the record drops via Arts and Crafts on May 8th.
