The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, straight out of New York, NY (and this is classic New York rock), have finally released a full-length album. The self-titled album dropped last month, and is a follow up to their 2007 EP. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart sound like a collision between The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Belle & Sebastian, and the 1980's. The noise-rock feel that this frenetic foursome emanates certainly owes something to bands like Sonic Youth and even The Velvet Underground too. Their sound is hip enough to catch the ear of indie aficionados throughout Williamsburg, but is catchy enough to probably get some mainstream attention. Let's see what happens.
