An infectious and intense pop tune with a sad tale behind it (discovered courtesy of Infectious), Coco is the new song from Czech band Charlie Straight. The hypnotic and warm vocals are luring and alluring, and the guitar work harmonic without being overwhelming, distinct but not stripped back. It’s not cool. Let’s get that straight. Some people will raise eyebrows, some sneer, but this is perfectly packaged and blissfully britpop, the sound of September days, with the light fading, russet hues starting to appear in the trees, and anthemic melodies still in the air. Glorious. Out September 16th.
