Local Natives - Gorilla Manor

After the debacle of the Manic Street Preachers, I needed the musical equivalent of sorbet. Something clean and fresh sounding that would make me forget what I was just listening to.

This was exactly what I was looking for. Bright, optimistic sounding, indie rock. A little in the vein of Beirut or Bombay Bicycle Club.  It floats along making you feel good while never requiring your full attention.  I don't know if I will buy it (I'm streaming Rdio again), but I'm definitely leaving it in my queue.
