B.W.'s PLAYLIST/ KHSU, 90.5/ SAT., 28 JAN. 2012


OK, it takes the band Imperial Teen five years to make an album. The last three albums have been released in 5 year stints, including their new release, Feel the Sound. Not a massive departure for this pop group, but it's still hook-filled and sugar sweet.
