Montreal outfit PyPy ("pronounced like 'π π'...with a long 'i' rather than long 'e', thank you very much" - their words, not mine) have just released a new track called Lonely Striped Sock. As the title implies, it fits in a slightly offbeat world, where funky and angular collide in a sort of charm-a-long freefall. For most of the time, the single has the sort of groove that non-dancers can strut around to with carefree abandon, before a frenetic guitar romp kicks a few tables and chairs over. Charismatic vocals, catchy hooks and a sense of getting down on the dancefloor with two left-feet make this a highly enjoyable release.
