Top 50 on Alt:
52 47 BEAR HANDS Giants 163 122 41 0.487
To me it sounds like Blink-182 meets indie, which isn't a bad thing.

I like it. The vocalist sounds like Tom DeLonge but the guitar reminds me of late 80s/early 90s Fleetwood Mac.

That really does sound like Tom. I don't hear that much indie involved and it sounds more like an Angels & Airwaves song in a way. Too bad there's not too much going on in the song lyrically besides the chorus, but I kind of like it.

I like this song alot. It reminds me of Blink 182 and something from the 80's that I can't recall.

This isn't bad. Reminds me of an indie/post-punk Blink 182.

Looks like this will be Top 10 any day now. Nice little indie success story if it holds. Maybe the only one so far this year outside of Arctic Monkeys of course.
This song reminds me a bit of Hockey's "Too Fake" at times. Another underrated band.

I really like this sound, it's like a mixture of today's indie and the poppier pop-punk (FOB, PATD, AAR, etc) that was big 5-10 years ago. However, I feel that "Dreaming" by Smallpools, which is the same type of song, deserved the success this one is getting.

I've listened to the full album a handful of times. A good, but not great album that happens to be heavily front-loaded. Ok, that describes a lot of albums, lol.
I would imagine "Agora" to be the clear choice, even if it's too repetitive for my taste.

I think the one two three punch of peacekeepers, sleeping on the floor, and my fav, party hats disagrees with that |
