Bishop Allen "Grrr..."

On a friend's recommendation I checked out this album. I liked the song "Middle Management" they had on the soundtrack for Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist so I had an idea of what to expect. This is actually a very indie pop sounding record. Makes you wanna tap your toes and clap your hands. It reminded me a lot of the Shins. Specifically Chutes Too Narrow-era Shins. And that's a great compliment for any band.
