One week, one band. You know the drill.
This week, the featured artist is Pants Yell!


Pants Yell! are some silly boys out of Cambridge, Massachusetts who are keeping things bouncy with their eccentric blend of indie pop with intelligent lyrics. But mostly they want to have fun, which they achieve admirably. They've been getting a bit of spotlight with the release of their latest album, Alison Staton. But I'd suggest, if you can play vinyl, grabbing their 7" EP, Paper Cities, which sounds most delightful.

They have all their albums for sale on their Myspace, which I suggest you wander over to check them out. And before you push Pants Yell! as just another random indie pop band with comedic use of exclamation marks in their name, listen to Not So City Life. It'll have you dancing in no time.
