Wesleyan University in Conneticut has produced some pretty talented people of late, MGMT and Chairlift to name but a few and now we have them to thank for Amazing Baby.
They take the extremely tired and worn out genre of indie pop and add a refreshing psychedelic, rock twist. Blend Pulp with Floyd and somewhere in there you would find Amazing Baby, its quite pleasant music and when they do experiment you do hear some interesting stuff, tracks such as Dead Light and Old Tricks In Hell, which have a much more synthy psychedelic feel do stand out and actually sound pretty good but they have neither the genius lyrics of Jarvis Cocker nor the musicianship of Floyd and despite the addition of a 15 piece orchestra I felt a little let down
