Track of the Day: Tennis, “Origins”

When talking about Tennis’ debut album Cape Dory last year, I noted multiple times that while I liked their sound, it got a little tedious after a while.  It seems they’ve listened and responded with a sound that still contains the 50s references, but also includes some rougher edges and modern songcraft.  ”Origins” is a lovely first taste of what to expect from their next album, Young and Old (out 2/14 from Fat Possum), and “Deep In The Woods” is an equally beguiling B-side (but we’ve covered that already).
