the new single is a bit too mellow and has a tad too much xylophone for my taste, but it's not awful. the redeeming quality of today's update email from VW? they're playing the Catalyst in Santa Cruz-- a super intimate venue (read on below, the band seems to be favouring California...yay!), andandand it's 16+ so I can take my baby brother! he really likes the band so it works out perfectly

I'm SO glad that they're playing here! And I can't wait to find out what those "impromptu events" are going to be =-D
Horchata sounds awesome. I haven't heard the rest of the album, just the debut, but this sounds like a really really good progression. Thanks for the download!
I like them both. They have a very distinctive sound and I'm glad they haven't veered too far away from that with their new material.
never being a huge VW fan, I actually liked the new track a lot more than I thought I would! Sounds like Belle & Sebastian decided on a tropical vacation, and how can that really be a bad thing?
The song is pretty good. More laid back than I expected but it would be pretty hard to follow up such a good debut album.
I"m a bit annoyed that their tour of Australia is only one show in a different state to the one I'm in...
Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of hardship when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Nowadays, I feel good, I started take up real money.
It gets down to choose a correct companion who utilizes your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, parts and divides the income with me.
You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
