The Little Ones - Terry Tales & Fallen Gates EP (2008)

Posted by awmercy | Labels: , , , , ,

I saw these guys open for Voxtrot a while back and have been waiting for them to finally release their album. Instead, they were dropped by their label and released an EP instead. No complaints here. I love indie pop EPs. This one's a short burst of upbeat Carribean steel drum infused pop (at least on the spirited "Boracay" anyway, but the island sentiment if not the instrumentation is in all the songs). I love the way the guitar lines ring out (ping?). It's a sing-along album for people in the mood for summery good times and maybe some fruity drinks. You know who you are.

I'm glad AIW commented first because I was going to say something almost exactly like that, but he worded it better (funnier) than I was going to.

Nice work.

I loved these guys more than Voxtrot at the concert (but I think that's because the lead singer had a cold and was visibly wheezing after each song). I didn't get into The Little Ones' EP as much as their live performance, but that's probably because I need to listen a couple more times.
