2000 Great Songs #1314: Plimsoll Punks
We're heading back to one of my favorite albums of the past decade, Alvvays ' Antisocialites . The 2017 LP is packed with fizzy pop tunes, and I could've gone a different way, but ended up on "Plimsoll Punks," a song that's almost too catchy for its own good. A little jangle to start us off, then the sheen of distortion kicks in, then back & forth a few more times, and if you're not singing along by the time you're midway through there's something deeply wrong with you.
