The Lovely Feathers — Hind Hind Legs

Music Review
The Lovely Feathers Hind Hind Legs
With all the new indie bands in the world taking cues from either Interpol or Arcade Fire, it's nice to see one band following in the footsteps of The Shins and The Unicorns (it's not a surprise that they ended up on the label created for ex-Unicorns project, Islands). The Lovely Feathers' debut could hardly live up to their live show, which got them booked as complete unknowns on a nationwide tour with Metric, but it's hardly a disappointment. "Pope John Paul" and "The Only Appalachian Cornfield" are two standout pop tracks in an extremely solid collection, while the haunting "E-Man's Sorrow" and "Wrong Choice" both ring of the best of early Weezer. I don't know if it will stand the test of time, but it sure sounds great right this second.
