Oh man. Justin from Fishboy hipped me to this fantastic song. At the risk of biting on Matt’s style, this song is very highly recommended.
MP3: Mount Righteous - When the Child Awakes
There’s just so many comparisons bustling around in here that I don’t even know where to start. It’s part acoustic Polyphonic Spree, part Tilly and the Wall, part I’m From Barcelona and maybe even how I’d picture the Arcade Fire sounding if they got heavy into twee pop. The point is that this is a band with quite a few members that makes uplifting pop music that’ll worm its way into your brain and heart. Just listening to this makes me want to climb trees and sing this song with all my friends. Strangely, that’s probably how this band got its start.
Mount Righteous have another great tune on their Myspace that you should go listen to right now.
