It's nigh on impossible to review a young, indie rock band anymore without referencing their predecessors, their colleagues who have created the anxiety of influence. Here, David Monks' voice, combined with Joshua Hook's compressed-spray on guitar, certainly conjure early Stroke

It's nigh on impossible to review a young, indie rock band anymore without referencing their predecessors, their colleagues who have created the anxiety of influence. Here, David Monks' voice, combined with Joshua Hook's compressed-spray on guitar, certainly conjure early Strokes, but then comparisons just fall short. Tokyo Police Club's command of multiple tempos and rhythmic palettes sets up spacey atmospheres to tumble through, with a hefty blast at their beck and call. There's a languid undertow here, Monks pulling you in with a slow, warm-water voice only to let his pals bludgeon you with just-so rhythms that, even in flight, last a sharp, fast two minutes on average. --Andrew Bartlett
Album Description
Import pressing of this quirky Toronto band's debut mini-album featuring one bonus track: 'Cut Cut Paste'. TPC play a unique style of high energy Indie Rock with nods to bands like Bloc Party and The Strokes but end up sounding completely different. Eight tracks including the singles 'Cheer It On' and 'Nature Of The Experiment'. Memphis Industries. 2007.
