Man, auxiliary percussion is the best.  All "More Cowbell" T-shirts aside, doesn't a righteous tambourine or enthusiastic handclaps just make your pop music day?  Friendly Foes know all about that shit, and they know how to make your pop music day.  With Ryan Allen from Thunderbirds Are Now! working main vocals and "yeah yeah yeah" backing vocal fist pumps form Liz Whittman, this is a band that loves choruses and tambos and propulsion and Elvis Costello and Superchunk.  Speaking of which - there was a Superchunk T-shirt in the day that had an Scooby-Doo style van with the arm of a dude throwing horns out the window.  Simple, to the point and full of power - kind of like Friendly Foes' first full length Born Radical on Gangplank.  These guys get "it," so if you want "it," grab "Get Yr Shit Together." 

Sounds Like: Guided By Voices, Spoon, Superchunk, Thunderbirds Are Now!
