Best Coast

i'm loving this stuff:

i dig that song. melodic, punky girl-group vibe.

i'm going to end up buying this record, aren't I?

man, the lyrics are really corny though and they're kinda impeding my enjoyment of the song

her vocals are also on some lesser Jenny Lewis thing

Kind of like this era's "that dog"

I was hoping it would be aislers set-ish but yeah that dog seems about right. Pretty uninspiring.

Musically I like it though (I am no authority on lyrics).

the right mix of poppy, upbeat summer tunes with a good guitar melodies.
plus the cat with sunglasses on the actual cd is pretty rad.
thumbs up!

her sound reminds me a lot of the concretes first couple albums

record isn't anything daring or innovative, but it's enjoyable! Cosentino's vocals remind me of Jenny Lewis's, which isn't a bad thing. also, I love the fact that it's just over a half hour. wish more records were

This is killer. Holy mackerel, I am so down with Best Coast.

this album is really good of course

Its good, but I feel like it works much better in small doses because its all pretty one note.

There's way less variety across the album in terms of the songwriting than there was across her run of singles/EPs over the last year. Or maybe I just like the songs less and it's making the flaws of her approach more apparent to me.

nice review, and i kinda want to hear this disc.

I am now going to go read a P4k review at 1:31 AM

lol, well, before you get too excited about this disc. . .

NO, DUSTED MAGAZINE

I've already heard it!

Fitzmaurice's review is solid, will go read the Dusted one too

Dusted review is terrible

haha, in general, i kind of like dusted magazine. they review a lot of interesting stuff (lots of soundways discs, for instance).

but yeah, that review, in particular, was unimpressive.

If the difference between Best Coast and hazed-out pop revivalists like The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Crystal Stilts, and Vivian Girls is one of degree, not of kind, then Best Coast have gone past pleasant nostalgia into some kind of mega-pointless, post-post-grunge echo chamber.

like, what in the world is this? "post-post-grunge echo chamber"?

OK I haven't heard the album yet, but absolutely nothing I've previously heard by Best Coast sounds anything like Belly!

All I can think about after that Dusted review is my cat talking. It'd probably be pretty awesome at first, but get annoying as hell really quickly.

Turns out that I am not interested in "getting burritos" with Brad LaBonte after all!

<3 this so much

yeah. it's v. good. perfect summer music.

i would totally be best friends with this chick

bong shaped like a cat! c'mon!

as long as we didn't have to listen to drake/kid cudi

i feel like everyone should be able to sum up their interests in life by combining two objects

mine would be "playstation 3 that plays gay porn"

irl lol

surprised at the love this is getting.

(its not v good imo)

Avenged Sevenfold isn't the only SoCal group to post an impressive showing on this week's sales chart. Retro-pop act Best Coast, the indie faves of the moment, enter at No. 36 with "Crazy for You," an album that sold 10,000 copies in its debut week. The buzz on Best Coast's '50's-meets-Ramones-inspired sound began at the South by Southwest conference in Austin, Texas, in March, and has only increased in the weeks since.

The 10,000 copies sold is more than respectable, and in line with other hotly tipped indie acts. Joanna Newsom, for instance, who recently performed a critically adored show at the Orpheum, opened with about 7,000 copies sold of her "Have One on Me" earlier this year.

music buyers otm

lol from that same billboard report
Trouble, however, could be in for M.I.A.'s "MAYA." Though the aggressiveness of the effort rewards after repeated listens, it's falling swiftly, resting at No. 66 after just three weeks, and totaling 46,000 copies sold.
