I’ve made another update to mux.awardtour. First is Gorgeous Behaviour by Swedish pop-duo Marching Band. The track is off their debut LP Spark Large which is really quite good. The song, like the album, has a really rich musical ensemble and fantastic 2-part harmonies with a really catchy call-and-response chorus. I, sadly, first heard the song on How I Met Your Mother. The 2005 version of me would be very unimpressed by my 2008 lack of indie cred.
Second is Just Impolite by Plushgun off their debut self-titled EP. Like Marching Band, the band is a duo and the song also features some really nice 2-part vocal harmonies. The sound is could easily be compared to MGMT and since the band is a duo from Brooklyn I’m sure that comparison will be near constant.
