It’s a great track, but I’m mostly reblogging to spread the excellent phrase “The Fastbacks meet ‘Lets Hear it for the Boy,’ from the Footloose soundtrack.”

The Manhattan Love Suicides - Jonny Boy

TMLS get a lot of comparisons to My Bloody Valentine and The Jesus and Mary Chain, and that can be heard on most of the band’s tracks, but this song is a little more pop, reminding me of The Fastbacks meet “Lets Hear it for the Boy,” from the Footloose soundtrack.  Do you hear it?

p.s. The album, Burnt Out Landscapes, is $8.99 for 27 tracks (AmazonMP3), and well worth it…
