Summer Camp
“Always”
Always (Moshi Moshi)

Even though bf/gf groups were soooo 2011, this London duo is refusing to call time on their moody, John Hughes-inspired synth-pop party. After a superlative debut EP Young and a patchy-but-still-pretty-fucking-brilliant LP Welcome to Condale, Summer Camp is back to its best with this bouncy, lovelorn jam. For a change, guitarist Jeremy Warmsley takes over lead vocal duties here, but that doesn’t mean we don’t get a steady dose of Elizabeth Sankey’s signature, confident voice. They sing so well together, and when they refrain, “we’ll always be together,” you can’t help but hope they’re right. Great track for summer.

Again, just cuz, here’s Condale‘s excellent lead-off track, “Better Off Without You.”
