Don’t underestimate The Drums‘ star power. The four-piece has some dance-worthy beach themes under its post-punk belt, including “Let’s Go Surfing,” “Down by the Water,” and “Submarine,” plus a bunch of mood-swaying, nostalgia-infused tracks that transcend any one particular decade.
A Drums song can sometimes read like a ’50s bubblegum prom dance postcard shuffled into a pack of pretty-in-punk party photos. What’s more, these Brooklynites morph it all into something modern that transforms our ever-changing musical landscape. It’s almost magic.
