who: Memoryhouse
what: The Kids Were Wrong
when: 2012 (Sub Pop)
where: Toronto, Canada
why: Because the holidays are over and this smooth bit of indie pop should help those of us who can’t get out of our xmas jammies finish cleaning the house, throw away leftovers, and do some laundry. Even if we’re still a little drunk.
Speaking of parties, I watched Marie Antoinette (Sofia Coppola version) yesterday and feel that Memoryhouse would have fit in quite well with its Bow Wow Wow, The Cure, and Strokes medley of a soundtrack. Who knows, perhaps 80s-inspired music is essential to the recovering rockstar.
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
