    I'm a big fan. Good, fun, catchy, melodic, retro sounding (reverb-heavy) guitar pop - imagine an alt rock version of The Ronnettes or something! Some of the lyrics...well...they're not exactly Dylan, but if that sort of doesn't bother you then you should definitely give them a shot.

    I love their music. My sister in law turned me on to them. They remind me of a young Liz Phair playing surf rock - very cool.

    Love me some Best Coast! Good, fun surf-pop-indie rock, and their album Crazy For You is solid.

    Rolling Stone gave them some love. They rated their song Boyfriend as the number 20 top single from 2010.

    I'm not into most current "indie" music but this is an exception. Our Idea is a personal favorite of mine.
