Song of the Day: White Arrows – Get Gone

You know how some songs have certain parts that stand out: like the beginning of M83’s Midnight City? White Arrows’ Get Gone is just a stream of conesecutive such stand-out moments. I have no better way to describe it. The beat at the beginning: super good. :56 when the the first chorus happens: 100% approved. The yell at 2:23: totally dig it. The overall sound is somewhere between Paul Simon/Animal Collective/Vampire Weekend – an interesting mix and one that works. I don’t think I can be more eloquent than one of the commenters on the band’s Youtube video who put it, simply and beautifully, as follows: So? sweet it makes ya wanna smack your granny’s toothache!

Yes, this song is pretty sweet. Give it a listen.
