MY TEENAGE STRIDE - TO LIVE AND DIE IN THE AIRPORT LOUNGE


ARTIST / BAND: MY TEENAGE STRIDE
SONG (MP3): TO LIVE AND DIE IN THE AIRPORT LOUNGE
ALBUM: Ears Like Golden Bats
FILE UNDER: Indie / Pop / New Wave
LABEL: Becalmed Records

INFO: "Buoyed by the same brand of upbeat moodiness that characterized many an old Smiths song, "To Live and Die in the Airport Lounge" is a sparkly bit of catchy but inscrutable guitar pop.." -jeremy, fingertipsmusic "I play at incredulous only because this is exactly what I want to hear in a promo copy. If you write about music, you are familiar with the dread-cum-anxiety brought on by one of those Media Mail envelopes (always, always that Office Gold hue). That particular malady dissipated, however, when I heard the opening chords of “To Live and Die In The Airport Lounge” from the band’s forthcoming third album Ears Like Golden Bats on the UK label Becalmed. I thought of, in the words of Fitchett, “Great Pop” and “Big Pop.”"
