What's The Story?
Foster The People are a young three-piece group from Los Angeles. Pumped Up Kicks is their smash single, hitting #8 on the US charts. It's from their debut album Torches.
Who's To Blame?
I spent 8 hours in the woods with the guy this weekend only to discover I didn't actually know his name.
Why ♥ It?
It's a fun tune you can bring home to mom.
I really don't have a library of ways to explain why this song is great. It sounds just like something you could hear from similar indie one-hitters like Peter, Bjorn & John or Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros: spaced out indie vocals, a prominent whistling part and competent & catchy instrumentation.
Somehow, though, I've managed to go all this time without hearing it, and that means there's a chance that you have, too. Check it out!
