New Human Television - "In Front of the House"



I didn't hear Human Television's debut EP, All Songs Written By: Human Television until well after it was released, which was just a shame because it was chock full of simple catchy guitar pop tunes. The interesting part of it was that it never really got old for me either. I think it was the harmonies, as most of their tracks rely on these perfect harmonies in the chorus, that you just can't help but fall in love with. Well the guys have got their debut LP Look At Who You're Talking To coming out May 2nd on Gigantic Music. Here's a song from the upcoming album.

[MP3]: Human Television :: In Front Of The House
The song is a testament to the fact that one perfect line can go a long way. Each time the chorus comes around and they sing "save yourself / s-s-save yourself/ first and last" I just fall in love over and over again. I wish the chorus just lasted the whole song and then went for another threee minutes. The harmonies combined with the completely unforgetable chorus make this song one of the best little pop songs I've heard so far this year.
