“We only write about two feelings: one is the first day of summer when you and all of your friends are standing on the edge of a cliff watching the sun set and being overcome with all of your hopes and dreams at once. The other is when you’re walking alone in the rain and realize you will be alone forever.” -The Drums It’s not even spring, and I already feel a favorite summer album coming on. That is Summertime! by The Drums. If you listen to The Drums and find yourself wondering when the music was made, you wouldn’t be the only one. It seems like Surf Rock is back and in full affect. The album is bright and smooth, with a hint of heartbreak in places. But still leaving you wanting to bounce all the way to the beach and into the water. The album has been lightening my load recently, and I can’t see that changing for a while. (buy on iTunes) Get into it: The Drums = Let’s Go Surfing The Drums = Down By The Water The Drums = Down By The Water (The Soundmen Remix)
