Tap Tap - Lanzafame


Lanzafame is a gloriously messy, ebullient, shiny pop album, filled with joyfully noisy guitars, crashy drums, and lurvely harmonies. The music blogosphere has been abuzz about the band since the album's release, and Tap Tap has since been compared to Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, The Arcade Fire, Wolf Parade, and Beirut. That's a fair comparison, but at the same time, Tap Tap is a unique animal all its own. These wondrous songs on Lanzafame feel like they are held together just by the skin of their teeth- as if they could fall apart (or maybe just explode) at any second. "...More hooks than Leatherface's timeshare..." "Recommended."
