Album Note - Tokyo Police Club: Champ

Death Cab for Cutie and Snow Patrol fans get in line. This is your music and you are right to like it because it's pretty good stuff. Even if like me you happen to be reaching for more ambient, experimental, fusion, and shoe-gazing works these days, one cannot live on electronica alone -- so now and then all indie fans must reach for meat and taters like this. It isn't award winning and I agree generally with the critical ratings, solid and worth the time spent listening.
Champ reviews at Metacritic.com 71/100 (generally favorable reviews)
