Tokyo Police Club – Champ [White & Blue Wave Vinyl Indie]

The bands classic second album, newly reissued on baby blue vinyl and blue & white wave vinyl!

As its name suggests, Champ is a triumph an album of taut catchy anthems that display a vigour and fizz and from the Toronto four piece. Stand out songs include the electronic pop of Bambi, the curiously titled duo Favourite Foods and Favourite Colour and the urgently anthemic Wait Up (Boots of Danger). Again Dave Monks lyrics are a real highlight with strikingly juxtaposed imagery the killer with the coloured kite, the national child star in a coat and a scarf, alone in the laundromat. Ultimately, though its the fizz bomb youthful energy of the songs that appeals most.
