My girlfriend showed me this band a month ago and I am just getting to it now. God, why am I so behind on life?
The band is called Fools Gold. (Like that shitty movie!) This song is a bit on the world/African rock genre that seems to be the hottest new thing! It has a tropical beach vibe, with tangy guitars, that are begging you to dance. The vocals come in and your in tropical nirvana. “Surprise Hotel” is a really fun treat, perfect to play us out of this summer!
Pitchfork gave this track a solid 8/10. But, if that means nothing to you, then just hit play below, and find out why you should be interested in this band!!!:
