Spindles Rule, OK?

Attentive readers will recall my enthusiasm for midwest indie-pop rockers The Spindles, whose fab gear cover of The Hollies' "Bus Stop" I enthused about earlier this year.

And now here, from their just released album Wavelength, please enjoy the lead off track, "Getaway."

I think you'll agree when I say -- that is power pop heaven fer sure.

Seriously, the entire album (which, have no fear, includes the aforementioned Hollies cover) is that good, and what are you waiting for? You can order it, either to stream or in physical form, over at their website HERE (not to mention at Amazon, Spotify, Bandcamp and the rest of the usual suspects). You'll also find gig info over there, and man, I wish I could afford a trip to Illinois to catch the upcoming show they're doing May 3rd at International Pop Overthrow Chicago.

Oh -- and about that CD. As you can see...

...it's packaged with an actual spindle attached -- i.e., an adapter for a 45 rpm record -- as a bonus.

Hey vinyl fans -- how freaking cool is that? 😎
