American Princes :: Other People


American Princes
Other People
Yep Roc Records


I can’t figure out if these dudes are from New York or Alabama. It doesn’t really matter either way, but it helps when you’re trying to figure out who they ripped off to make this record. Lucky for you guys, Other People actually sounds like something new. It’s sort of like a mid-80s-post-futureheads thing with a little bit of The Cars in there, too. And when you get past the amount of surface-level Robert Smith in this record, you’ll actually think it’s pretty good. David Slade and Collins Kilgore (the band’s singers) throw in a lot of different shit to make this record sound very much unlike everything else you’ve been listening to lately. Favorites include:“Auditorium,” “Gravel,” and “Still Not Sick of You.”
