Stuck on Repeat

Not sure how I have come to like Japandroids so much, especially since I have never been into the loud fuzzy angsty guitar rock. Perhaps its because they are two local guys who came together on the campus of UVic or perhaps it because their fuzzy guitar rock comes packaged with infectious riffs and nostalgic lyrics. "Younger Us" is the Japandroids second offering from their 7" series.

For the first time since 2007's Wincing the Night Away, The Shins are out with new music, albeit a one off cover track. "Goodbye Girl" sounds Shinsy enough and would fit seemlessly alongside the rest of their catalogue. With its pop-choppy guitar riff and its nostalgic lyrics, its a perfect sounding song for summer.
