Little Comets

Add Date: January 25

Artist: Little Comets

Album: In Search of Elusive Little Comets

Label: Dirty Hit

Genre: Pop, alternative

Comments: Little Comet's In Search of Elusive Little Comets draws comparisons to The Futureheads and other Euro-pop/rock/punk groups of the like. With upbeat tempos and songs averaging around three minutes, the album captures on one level the vibrancy of youth and on a second, the urgency and restrained frustration of this age. The latter is mainly accomplished by the sharp, piercing, and jerky lyrics. This album doesn't have as much eccentricity as groups of the same style, but that is to their benefit. In Search of Elusive Little Comets proves more accessible and enjoyable, even the first time around. Start with "Isles" for a British subject matter to match this British group.
