Sports Boyfriend - Novelty (Original Mix)

Chicago's Sports Boyfriend are in the house with more quirky lo-fi electronic pop. Over a simple drum machine and single guitar, SB's female french-accented singer bemoans being treated like a novelty by her significant other. By the time they hit the chorus, you're hooked. At points it seems like the guitarist goes off into their own world, playing a different song from the rest of the band. This adds a disconcerting vibe to the track, and an interesting quality. The echo effect on the voice adds to this. A hint of menace behind the sweet voice? This is no novelty record. Have a listen today.
