True to form, Canadian pop-rockers Tokyo Police Club’s latest single is another excellently jovial slice of upbeat jangles and hand-clapping try-this-at-home bits. It ain’t rocket science, but that’s its charm. Take a synth and some drums, some shout-happy youths and some guitar riffery straight outta NYC’s coolest clubs, and bingo: this.
‘Your English Is Good’ is let down, rather, by its release date: this is super summer fare, so it’s devastating that the English weather has failed to fulfil its part of a bargain, leaving Tokyo Police Club a sunny afternoon short of the perfect indie-pop party. Still, come the clearing of the clouds, this should force its way to the forefront of your personal playlist – it’s simply so chipper that avoiding its charms should be as difficult as avoiding the irritation that is the current top 10.
Yeah, you could call it post-Strokes of style, but be fair: the New Yorkers haven’t sounded this incessantly vital, and this fun, for years. Their seat on the throne of mainstream indie-club dancefloors is slipping, and bands like Tokyo Police Club are sure to be there when their collective arse hits the deck.

I really like this band
I kinda dismissed them at first as 'just another band', but I'm happy to admit I was wrong
That is basically
what i was going to say.
Really love the single
enjoyed the EP they released last year and its good to heard some tracks that weren't on it.
this
is immense. i heart the fuck out of it.
will they ever give a reason
for the no show at t in the park
The reason
It wasn't their fault. I know members of the band and it had to do with whoever booked out their tourbus. Apparently there is only so much time one driver can log per trip, and when it came to getting to T the driver had exceeded that amount of time and therefore they had no professional driver for the bus. It was some overlooked detail that totally screwed over both the band and the crowd at the festival. Don't hold it against them - they couldn't do anything about it.
sosososo
