SONG OF THE DAY [#269]

'anymore' | the superimposers

they're back. the superimposers' new album, 'harpsichord treacle,' dropped last week via wonderfulsound and like its predecessors, i totally dig it. [i've written about them before, so i'll spare you all the biographical stuff]. maybe it's 'cos they worship at the altar of brian wilson. nah, they're just great!

for me there's just something inherently pleasing and intoxicating about sampling the sounds of the sixties [whether it be actual sampling or drawing inspiration from] and wrapping them up in warm harmonies and melodies. is it nostalgia? i dunno. maybe. but the superimposers aren't so much about the nostalgia, but rather a natural longing for those bygone years of youth we remember as a much simpler time, even though it probably just about as difficult then as it is now. but difficult or not, the world of the superimposers is all about dreamy, golden summer evenings, convertibles, and hand-holding. it's a place i'll gladly spend some time in. i think you will, too.

[can a summer tour with the shortwave set be too far behind? i can only dream...]

the superimposers: anymore
the superimposers: golden
