Tokyo Police Club - Forcefield

Review by Dave Hanratty

Tokyo Police Club have finally made small sound huge.»

Buy now from:

Ontario's Tokyo Police Club are back with a brand new album 'Forcefield' through Memphis Industries. The album includes the 8 minute epic that is 'Argentina (Parts I, II, III)', and their most pure pop moment to date, 'Hot Tonight'. The new record is the quartet's first release in four years, following 2010's hugely acclaimed 'Champ'. 'Forcefield' is perhaps Tokyo Police Club's most direct statement of intent yet, musically referencing anything from Tom Petty to Smashing Pumpkins, whilst never losing the unmistakable energy that has marked their work ever since their debut mini-album 'A Lesson in Crime'. The album was produced by Doug Boehm (Girls, Dr Dog) and singer David Monks.
