The Bicycles

Yes, it is a new year, and what does a new year bring us?  Well, the new year will bring us thousands of new released albums artists take so much time, effort, and creativity to construct.  So for my first post of the new year I would like to start out with a band that perfectly assembled an album that captures the motto of good ole fashion fun! The BICYCLES!!! I think to myself from time to time what the whole thinking process bands undergo to devise a practical name with a good ring to it.  Sometime you can tell the genre of a band by their name because most indie bands come up with something witty or dainty.  You can tell this foursome struck gold with their name because with the name 'The Bicycles' comes the assumption of kookiness and fun.  Their indie pop is sugar coated with sunshine and rainbows.  Okay lets not kid ourselves, music with constant enthusiasm can drive one insane but I promise The Bicycle's latest album "Oh no, It's Love" is chemically balanced with righteous hooks, pleasant melodies, and sweet vocals.  Oh and did I mention that each song in the album basically is about two minuets long in length.  So we can weed out the boredom factor.  Ok lets simplify the reasons to listen to this band...The Bicycles, sugar-coated, kooky, sunshine, rainbows, FUN... Need I say more?
