Sometimes it takes me a while to get around to listening to (and writing about) music; I got these two eps pretty soon after seeing Little Scout supporting the New Pornographers back in November 2010. Their sound is pleasantly jangly, lilting indie-pop - there's plenty of this kind of stuff around, including made by Australian bands, but I am very fond of the style. And while Little Scout's take on the genre isn't especially distinctive, listening to these eps this afternoon did make me feel a bit nostalgic - momentarily melancholy - in the usual partly specific, partly intangibly general way.
