#25 No Age – You’re A Target
There’s a noise in this track that I can’t get out of my head. It sounds like a bent out of shape guitar being pulled backwards through a hedge, dragging a full board of pedals behind it. It comes into my peripheral thoughts when other stuff is on, if only many pop tunes had a hook half so memorable! I struggle to comprehend how these two guys make music with such depth of sound, whilst maintaining a pop knack that escapes so many of their contemporaries. They only put out the Losing Feeling EP in ’09, just four tracks, but it was enough to keep their name on so many lips. Their preceding two long-players were fantastic too, which raises expectations for a third to fever pitch. Can’t wait.
