Swedesplease

Posted: 22 Jul 2009 07:53 AM PDT

Here’s a song from Taxi Taxi’s upcoming debut LP that hasn’t made the rounds of yet. I wrote about Taxi Taxi way back when and at the time was intrigued by all the angles (twins, very young, unusual harmonies - did I say gorgeous?) as well as being impressed by their music.

I had hoped that their sound would grow and change over time, but instead it’s stayed rather simple, if now it’s somewhat adorned. Perhaps I was hoping for too much from them. Here’s “Ripest Fruit” off of Still Standing At Your Back Door (Rumracket, Sept. 21).
