New Concretes - "Oh Boy"
The squalor of Victoria's departure behind them (she's off taking care of Taken Trees), the Swedish septet the Concretes soldier on with this year's release of their third LP Hey Trouble, from which the four-to-the-floor first single "Kids" waded out a few months back. The band's quietly been adding tracks to their MySpace since, including the exquisite mope-pop of "A Whale's Heart" and now the sunnier, tom-rolling tune "Oh Boy." Have a listen here. Missing Ms. Bergsman? Hey, there are still plenty of Concretes in the mix, and you gotta give 'em credit: they have excellent taste in home deco.
