Add Date: March 9
Artist: Happy Birthday
Album: Happy Birthday
Label: Sub Pop
Genre: Pop/"Post-Retro"
Comments: Weird, quirky pop done right--Happy Birthday's self-titled album is full of fuzzy guitar (which is, in fact, "inverted-tuning" guitar), off-beat vocals (including some well-placed falsetto), tempo shifts, and other music stylings that combine to create weird, catchy alt-pop. Some standouts include "Girls FM", a catchy, harmonic power-pop song with enough fuzz to give it edge and "Subliminal Message", the most ballad-esque track of the group with great synth and a lovely chorus. Also notable is the sing-song, somewhat slinky "I Want to Stay (I Run Away)". Creative and catchy; well worth a listen.
