The young masters of bedsit indie pop Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin, who landed a sweet slot in our three-day SXSW fiesta (between Kaki King and Letterman-beloved Liam Finn), offer up another track to remind you that the repeat-worthy Pershing drops just a few weeks after we all get back from Austin. The last cut "Glue Girls" gave us some shifty grooved power pop, "Think I Wanna Die" brings it back to their Brooming fresh-scrubbed and bright eyed sweet '60s stuff: you know that time, when songs started on the hook and boys followed lines like "Think I wanna die if you don't stay / Drop dead in place you can forget it / Carry a torch for days I'm gonna let it burn" with melodic doo-doo-doos ... and it all sounded sincere and real and made you feel like finding a gal to go steady with and take to the drive in.
