The Eclectics

Limited Edition Single

Jump Up!

“So Long as You Use a Knife (There’s Some Love Left)” and “Malleability” are the two songs on this single. I haven’t heard any of the Eclectics other releases, but this two song single seems rocking. It has a nerd core/emo feel, reminding me of both Weezer and Elvis Costello. While it’s not really original, its catchy, keyboard-infused songs are good pop quality. If their other songs are at the same level as these, they may just be something to write home about.
