The Only Place-Best Coast to drop 2nd Album on May 15, review

Best Coast has been making a considerable buzz over the past couple of years or so with their first effort Crazy for You and some underground hit songs. With their sophomore album “The Only Place”, the band delivers a compilation of pop songs in a lo-fi sonic haze that put forward the raw energy and youthful liveliness blend with the sweet tunes. This is pop of the bubblegum mixture to be certain, but it's not your typical band. It's pop with a little twisted soul. Some of listeners may be let down by the insufficient scope of the record's subject matter and the repetitive lyrics, though this is the sound of a group just beginning to understand its prospective and not stepping outside its comfort zone as it shapes its distinctiveness.

The official release date for the Best Coast’s new album “The Only Place” is set for May 15, 2012.
