Andorra by Caribou
==Point Me at the Sky…==
You can generally rely on Canada to come up with some good modern music, from old stalwarts of the business like Leonard Cohen and Neil Young to newer acts like Arcade Fire and Rufus Wainwright and his sister, Martha. Unless you happen to live in Canada, however, finding something nearer the cutting edge may prove to be a little more problematic. One place you could begin the search is the Polaris Music ... ...but once you've listened to Andorra I'm willing to bet that you'll seriously wonder why that is.
==Man Bites Dog…==
Since this album and its creator are probably unfamiliar to most readers of this review, I hope a little introductory background will cast some light.
The man behind Caribou is a 30 year old Canadian from Dundas, Ontario by the name of Dan Snaith. Snaith is a self-confessed nerd but I sense that he hardly needed to have a confession ...
