Tennis Pro

Add Date: July 5 

Artist: Tennis Pro 

Album: Shimokita is Dead? 

Label: Self-released 

Genre: Rock 

Comments: The blog Three Imaginary Girls has an amazing take on the new Tennis Pro album: "Usually when a band gets down to business time it isn't always fun: it can be a release of pent-up disappointments and missed chances. But Tennis Pro do a complete 180 degree breakdance spin and, instead, throw a party of a record. And their world domination just means fun for everyone at that party... Honestly, where previous [third] album Are You There, God? It's Me Tennis Pro perfectly sort-of evoked the dark, down edges of the '00s (indie feeling creepy about the good times being almost gone), the band has brought a whole new barefoot, mock the cops before you get the pepper spray, antagonistic playfulness..."

The album is a treat, but I'd definitely recommend checking out tracks 1, 2, 3 and 6.
