Artist description For all the bubblegum goodness and cheap thrills of its three-minute confections, Guitar Pop is, as the sweet impala can confirm, not as easy it looks. It all comes down to the hooks, those fleeting musical snares that can sell or sink a song. Luckily, the four men in the Impala excel at two things: 1. devising delectably catchy hook-laden tunes, and 2. messing them all up. Like the most enduring songs from the Beatles, Buzzcocks, and Nirvana, the sweet impala’s magnificent pop coaxes the listener with instantly appealing melodies but also tempers itself with bristly instrumentation, curious vocal turns, and welcome sonic weirdness.
