Nada Surf: Hi-Speed Soul
What on earth has happened here? I mean musically, there are probably a few more surprising things
in this world, but not many.
Nada Surf, the grumpy old geek-angst rockers have returned to the fray with an absolute pop gem of a single.
'Hi-Speed Soul' (not to be confused with Supergrass' 'Rush Hour Soul', of course) sees verses encumbered with eighties rock disco guitars, and a gorgeous, saccharine sweet chorus that merges New Order synths with a vocal that is more Pet Shop Boys than Weezer. And if that doesn't float your boat, then you're obviously dead.
"you talk to the ceiling everyday/the speakers are shaking/why do I hear you okay?"
Probably because for once, Nada Surf, you're making sounds we want to hear.

Returned with an absolute pop gem?! Did The Way You Wear Your Head (similar vein, even better hook) escape people's notice around here?
