Bought a Komeda album years ago just because I liked the video. I sometimes buy shit just because I like the cover art. That's how it goes. Aside from having the obvious pop comparison to Stereolab, they are just about as perfect as a pop band can get. The new album Kokomemedada, which is probably a year old at this point, is making me very happy right now. I had written them off as an blue-speckled egg anomaly, but I saw a video for 'Blossom' on sputnik7 recently. It was enough to get me out to the store. Maybe it's the colder weather. The crispy air kind of lends itself to pop music.
