The Takeover UK - Free EP Download

Thanks to Rykodisk for alerting me to the fun, snappy pop that is The Takeover UK and their soon-to-be-out EP called "It's All Happening". The Pittsburgh combo puts all the good stuff together - Beatlesque melodies, Strokes-y guitar and vocal lines, ELO-laden harmonies and smashing, crunchy guitars. Ah-La-La is especially catchy.



They say....

"Pop geniuses THE TAKEOVER UK have released their debut EP for free... one week only! Rykodisc’s latest signing, The Takeover UK, want to introduce themselves to you so they’re making their debut release, the It’s All Happening EP, available as a free download for one week only. The EP is officially released next Tuesday, May 20. But starting right now, you can download the EP in its entirety -- along with bonus podcasts -- exclusively at Last.fm.
