Good Flying Birds – “I Care For You”
Every new single out of the new Good Flying Birds has been a charmer. The band takes a ramshackle shot at indie pop, stripping back the layers until they get to the kernel, a pure pop explosion without artifice. “I Care For You” is a prime example of the band’s appeal, a prickly hook that snags the soul atop the scotch taped snap of drums and paper thin strums. It shouldn’t work. It should crumble on contact, but the band takes the GBV formula for not overthinking pop and tosses it in front of a lo-fi leafblower, scattering their strums all over the room. The band pairs this one with a frantic home vid scroll that feels like a perfect match. The band’s album, Talulah’s Tape, is out October 17th from Carpark.
