Ex-Boyfriends

12 Feb

Cory over at Absolutely Kosher brought Ex-Boyfriends to my attention with perfect timing considering my re-kindled interest in XTC and the accompanying power-pop kick I’m on. Dig their Drums and Wires era vibe—mixed in with a touch of Archers of Loaf and 999. Album’s available next week and in March the band begins making rounds out West. Ready, set, pogo!

    These guys aren't related to Neko Case at all, are they? :)

    Woah, how serendipitous. I just read about them and wanted to check them out. 3hive reads my mind.

    Yeah, I guess I hear a bit of "Drums and Wires" in there, but really sounds more "Boy's Don't Cry"-era Cure to me. Either way, good stuff.
