Video: Tokyo Police Club – “Breakneck Speed”

Tokyo Police Club – Breakneck Speed from momandpopmusic on Vimeo.

Good to be back, good to be back, good to be back. Tokyo Police Club’s Champ is fast becoming my most-listened to album of the year. I saw and enjoyed them at Coachella, but my memory of that afternoon is a bit, ahem, hazy; at any rate, it’s the Rob Schnapf-produced album itself that’s grabbed hold of my ears and held tight with bro hugs. Recommended if you like the Strokes, Harlem Shakes, feeling great about life.

    Praise you, Greenwald. Champ is becoming one of my most-listened to albums of the year, as well. For my money, it doesn't get any better than the “Hands Reversed” – “Gone” – “Big Difference” – “Not Sick” setup.

    Dude, “End of a Spark!”

    “End of a Spark” is great, too. They played that, as well as “Favourite Food”, “Favourite Colour”, “Breakneck Speed”, “Boots of Danger (Wait Up)” and “Hands Reversed” at Bonnaroo earlier this month. Crowded as anything, but I still got decently close. This is a straight-up, feel-good album. These dudes are around my age, which makes me say to myself, “Aw man, what I have I done in my 22-year existence…”
