Monogold — Spirit or Something

A lot of songs take a while to speed up, get going.  They suck you in, entice you with a look, gain speed, then at some point you realize you’ve been hooked by their sharp claws and you can’t escape the sound. This track has been making it around thru my friends’ blogs, and after listening several times, I’m realizing how it’s the end of this tune that just slays it and has me hooked. Wickedly good pop.

Pick up their new LP The Softest Glow here. See them with Chad Valley, Selebrities, and Teeel March 11, 2011 @ GLASSLANDS GALLERY in Brooklyn.

Up-tempo Brooklyn-hailing trio called Monogold, dropped a catchy tune by and it just made me wanna jump into a ravine only to grab a vine and swing to the ground as I pretend to be chased by some sort of anti-environmentalist. I’m not really sure though.
