Tune In Saturdays: Field Music
Yup, Field Music, the British three-piece including the former drummer from the Futureheads, sounds like every other European critic-whore band in the world, which is probably why I like 'em.
It's just nice, minimalist and clean, without being dumb or boring. And they've got enough la la's and da da's to satisfy any Beatles fan.
From Stylus Magazine:
"Brothers David and Peter Brewis, along with third player Andrew Moore,
craft songs that are complex in their simplicity. The ambition comes in
the musical arrangements. These are songs that veer to and fro,
frequently sounding as if they’re nearly about to run off the rails."
Complex in their simplicity? Well, music writer, your writing sounds non-sensical in it's intelligence. How bout that!
Alright, here's the video called A House is Not a Home, from their upcoming record, Tones of Town. More on MySpace.
