‘Girls Like You’ is an interesting track that starts off slowly and builds brightly. There’s a real pumping Pulp feel about the music here as the track hits its stride; it’s a really impressive piece of music from the band featured in the BBC’s Sound of 2011.
There’s an MGMT meets alternative rock feel about the sound here, the band clearly has an electronic edge about it, but it’s also quite obvious that The Naked and Famous is approaching its music from more of a rock than electronic angle.
With its powerful chorus and extreme catchiness, ‘Girls Like You’ follows on well from ‘Young Blood’ and ‘Punching in a Dream’ and should see the band secure another successful single release.
It’s not hard to tell why the BBC has this band down as one of the most promising new artists of 2011, and if you’re a fan of indie/alternative rock music then The Naked and Famous’ ‘Girls Like You’ is most definitely a track that you should take the time to listen to.
