Family of the Year :: "Summer Girl"

Like a badly written movie the summer season is always built to have an ending that is either overly nostalgic or pedantically allegorical. There might not be any deep lessons here, only rough-hewn frames on blurry images and half-written narrative. It is the close of the season of dilated time. Family of the Year will bear this out for us with vocals so smooth and harmonies so packed together, they sound like a sun-drenched, and very human, THX intro. The chord-progression is from the heart-breaking school, one last weekend with great friends and the memory of a season that always feels a little like it both did and didn't really happen.
