Pure Comfort: Kung-Fu Girl’s “Anorak”
You call a song “Anorak,” you better deliver those twee vibes. And Kung-Fu Girl does just that by giving in to all the hallmarks of the style. The band has been around for a few years now and up until now have always felt like they’ve tried a little too hard to stick out from the crowded indie-pop field. But here they just embrace all the trademarks of the style, and thank goodness for that! Fast pace guided by guitars, easy-breezy vocals, a twinge of melancholy? You better believe it! No points for originality, but this is pure comfort executed well. Listen above.
