Toronto – Chicago band Fruit Bats is one of those bands that I’ve always heard of, but never really actually listened to. Well, their fifth album Tripper was released off Sub Pop a few weeks ago so it was only natural we would finally give them a go around.
“You’re Too Weird” is a track off that album and it’s got a great ’70s alt-country folk kind of vibe to it. Eric Johnson’s vocal delivery in this song sounds like Barry Gibb on Vicodin, resulting in a lovely, relaxing track that brings me back to my days at wood paneled cottages. Possibly a great track for those just about to leave their summer homes who want to reflect on the sunshine that was just the summer. Check it out.
