| Nine Black Alps - Supermarket Clothes |
I knew a guy once who used to
rave about Nine Black Alps at every opportunity to the point at which I decided
I didn't like the band purely on the basis of this annoying habit. Later in
life, however, I pulled my head out of my arse and started to form better
opinions, one of which was that Nine Black Alps are actually pretty awesome.
'Supermarket Clothes' is an instant and impatient piece of indie-pop noise that
will appeal to everyone who likes to jump around without any sense of
coordination at indie discos. A choppy, circular riff draws you in and the band
then do a bang up job of sounding like Weezer, Sebadoh, Folk Implosion or any
number of US indie slacker bands. There's a whole new album on the way and I
feel like this song will make even more context in that format but as an
opening salvo 'Supermarket Clothes' is a gloriously melodic racket.
