Cold-hearted lovers get warm under covers
The Hermit Crabs
The new Correspondence Course EP from Scotland's Hermit Crabs – which I only just heard very recently – has become an integral companion for me as I'm beginning to welcome the Spring season back into my life. The EP (out on Matinee Records) is four tracks of sugary-sweet indiepop that seems to just cover your whole body with sunshine! The best part? Melanie's immensely catchy vocal melodies – and they're made even better against the backdrop of the bouncing, almost surf-y lead guitar. In my opinion, these guys and gals should totally be as big as Camera Obscura. Listen to "I Don't Know How" and just try not to smile!

Ace!
Speaking of Camera Obscura, who's excited for their new album?!
Heehee my code thing has "poop" in it!
That's my picture. :-)
This is a sparklingly lovely song. I don't give the Hermit Crabs the attention they probably deserve. I guess I've always thought them a bit too folky for my tastes. I enjoyed them live, however!
