Caribou: moving to Andorra in August
- Artists:
- Caribou »
Caribou's new LP, Andorra, will be released on August 20 through City Slang.
The follow-up to the much-loved The Milk Of Human Kindness, the album finds its maker, Dan Snaith, saying:
"Basically all the songs that I really love are 'lump in your throat' pop songs. I still can't really listen to 'This Will Be Our Year' by The Zombies because it turns me into a big cry-baby. But it's all about trying to recreate that feeling.
"Music either has that effect or it's bullshit I've decided in the last year. So I wanted no bullshit on this album. Turned out that was incredibly hard."
The nine-tracker is shaped like this:
'Melody Day'
'Sandy'
'After Hours'
'She's The One'
'Desiree'
'Eli'
'Sundialing'
'Irene'
'Niobe'
We're playing Andorra right now. Good, is what it sounds like. MySpace here.

Milk of Human Kindness was a musical hardon

I thought Up In Flames was better. But Melody Day sounds fantastic.
