Know-It-All

Matt LeMay, Pitchforkmedia contributor and mod on the Wrens' absolutely dead website forum (not a joke) has this terrific band called Get Him Eat Him. I would have thought there'd be some discussion of an outfit like this on the forum, but my search turned up nothing.

If you want a truly gleaming, overpowered pop song that splits open with more color and exuberance than an exploded bag of Jackson 5-flavored skittles, then listen to "2 x 2", the first track from their 2007 record, Arms Down. Matt sings like he smiles while he sings and probably does.

I couldn't at first figure out why I was so immediately smitten by the music, breezy and blinding as it was, and then I found out Charles from the Wrens contributed. That's all it takes!

He's a mod on the Wren's website discussion forum. THAT IS INTERESTING.

THESE THREADS ARE INTERESTING. They're about indie rock! God DAMN IT!

I'm part of that site. Although, I think I've only posted once or twice.

Put something out already, Charles and Kevin!!!!!

Dude, funny you should mention it. I was looking for somewhere to post about the new Wrens song "Sleep" on the Net Neutrality comp.

It's streaming Here

And it's totally awesome.

I really like the song, although it's one of the most ordinary tracks the Wrens have like...ever...done.
