“Good Day” for a lousy day in Chicago

May 30th, 2008 · 2 Comments

We’re on a tornado watch in the upper Midwest this morning, complete with black skies and spitty rain, so there’s nary a better time to post an infectious spot of piano pop like Jukebox The Ghost’s “Good Day.” From the looks of their recent tourmates (Nightmare of You, Via Audio),they walk the fine line between indiehood and high school mixtapes…maybe I’m fourteen, but it works for me. Snarky lyrics and more-complex-than-The O.C.-soundtrack arrangements haul this trio back from the mall pop abyss, landing them squarely between Ben Folds and 90’s college nerd rock.
