Bethany Cosentino is all kinds of rad.
"I want to be somebody else. Sick of myself and how I feel. Don't recognize who I see in the morning. Used to be so clear." I've been asking myself this question a lot lately.
What else could you wish for with Chrimbo approaching but surf pop. Could have been #SleighBells but that was too on the money so here is #BestCoast. Love the new album.
I loved Best Coast's first album, didn't care much for their second one, but the EP from which this track is, is back on track, yet smelling all new. Rawk guitars with brilliant melodies, and Beth's voice is brilliant. The lyrics are heartbreak and sadness, but paired with the Nirvana-circa-In-Utero guitars, it's a feel of Scout Niblett mixed with 1960s girl-group pop. I love this.
Best Coast make me wish I was in a girl band in high school.
I own the first Best Coast album and found it charming in a naive way. The new mini-album on the other hand is really rather muscular musically with catchy melodies akin to Blondie at their best. Love it.
