Synopsis

Product Description

Champ is the much-anticipated new album from Tokyo Police Club, due out on June 8th on mom+pop. The Newmarket Ontario quartet was hailed by Rolling Stone as poised to become the biggest Canadian export since Molson and Champ delivers on that promise. Produced by Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Beck, the Vines) and led by the infectious new single, Wait Up (Boots of Danger) , Champ is a huge musical step forward for the band.
Champ follows up the band s 2008 debut album, Elephant Shell, which was celebrated by the likes of GQ, Elle, Spin, Rolling Stone and more- not to mention appearances on The Late Show With David Letterman, The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson and Desperate Housewives. Champ s release will be followed by an exhaustive world tour, with the band already confirmed to tour with Passion Pit, appear at this year s Coachella and Bonnaroo festivals, before headlining their own dates

Absolutely perfect!!!

"i was nervous that this album would disappoint in comparison to Elephant Shell, but i was very pleasantly surprised. Tokyo Police Club may have topped themselves with this one. the entire album is outstanding and original! stand out track: "Favourite Food""

Is this TPC?

"I've been a huge TPC fan for almost three years now...the first two albums are just awesome. Maybe my expectations were too high. Some of the songs on this album sound like they could be performed by lesser bands - there is no quirkiness here. Yes, the songs are "catchy" but not in the way that they were before. While I do believe that it's good for bands to mature, becoming more mainstream is not the best way to go about it. (I miss the instrumental quality!!!) Favorite track is "Hands Reversed""

Not their best, still great

"Champ is another catchy synth pop album from TPC, but this time around with much better production than usual. Its not quite the fun grit of A Lesson in Crime, and i'd say it lacks the radio hits of Elephant Shell, but as an album i'd say it's just as good (or almost as good in the case of A Lesson in Crime) as anything they've put out before. My favorite tracks are "Favorite Colour", "Gone", "Wait Up (Boots of Danger)", and "Breakneck Speed". Anyone who likes indie rock should check this album out, its too fun to pass up. 5/5"
