Song of the Day: Los Campesinos!, “By Your Hand”

This post was submitted by Rohan

Los Campesinos! are back! THis year the band will release their fourth album in as many years, Hello Sadness. The band barely took time off after releasing their underrated masterpiece Romance Is Boring, as after an extensive world tour the band set out to make a zine/LP club Heat Rash. Tough there has only been one issue released the collection expands on LC!’s love of the passband obsession of a time when K bands ruled the indie rock scene. Today’s song of the day is the first single fromHello Sadness “By Your Hand.” The song starts with a chorus resembling something Mates of State or Matt and Kim would use before letting Gareth’s tales of trying to bed girls who end up vomiting on him and unrequited love fill the verses. The track is a bright side of LC! but it is only surface level. Their lyrics are full of darkness that cement the fact that LC! are an emo band that indie kids can love.
