05 Weekly Release Spotlight
Los Campesinos!
We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed
[Arts & Crafts]
"The guy singing all the sad songs died / Oh well, I guess he was right," sings Gareth Campesinos with world-weary gusto on the opening track of his band's second full-length We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed. The line, along with the album's title, encompasses everything that one needs to know about Los Campesinos! They're insufferably cute and clever, yes, but they're also bursting at the seams with desperation and bleakness, which may seem especially odd considering their candy-sweet pop melody savvy. Really though, it all fits majestically together, seven Welsh twentysomethings baring their gnashing yellow teeth of glorious youth while they fight against the impending end of days.
