I Can T Go On I Ll Go On
Longtime Listener
INDIE
Stunning debut album from an amazing young band – glorious pop, big West Coast harmonies, huge hooks, sunny melodies, chiming guitars… the stuff everyone digs! Longtime Listener version includes 2 Bonus Tracks!
This is a wonderful debut album from new Los Angeles five-piece, THE BROKEN WEST, marked by a stunning batch of songs from start to finish. Their roughly elegant pop music and infectious confidence belies their relatively short career to date.
‘I Cant Go On, I’ll Go On’ is a true power pop gem – shimmering and cool, with sharp edges and soaring melodies. THE KINKS, BIG STAR and THE BYRDS are obvious touchstones, as well as contemporaries like SPOON and TEENAGE FANCLUB.
Their raucously energetic live show is a sight to behold, and they have just recently showcased to rapturous reception at Austin’s famed SOUTH BY SOUTHWEST festival.
Overseas press has been glowing so far, check these review snippets: AMPLIFIER “A stunning debut, with echoes of straight pop, languid alt-country, and crunchy rock mingled together to create a compelling listen. Stellar.”… HARP “Diverse and gorgeous and textured… This kind of evolution usually takes several generations.” … PASTE “Will explode your face off with its flat-out awesomeness.”
Signed to MERGE RECORDS for the world (THE ARCADE FIRE, LAMBCHOP, SPOON) and on LONGTIME LISTENER for Australia and New Zealand.
New local label LONGTIME LISTENER continues to release quality records, this winner following the release of better-known acts THE HOLD STEADY and THE EARLIES.
Australian / NZ edition includes 2 bonus tracks from the band’s debut EP.
