I Missed This: New When Nalda Became Punk

It looks like it’s going to be a day for great pop music, so I apologize that the latest from Spain’s When Nalda Became Punk slid under my radar. The band reminds me a lot of current buzz act, The Mercury Girls, though I think there’s more of an understated pop sensibility lurking here. They’re not beating you over the head with those discordant jangles, letting them sit back and enjoy the natural bounce of this track; it allows for natural melody to come through vocal harmonizing, which is always endearing. The group release their newest EP, Those Words Broke Our Hearts, on March 10th via Shelflife.
