Stuck On Repeat: The Blow’s “The Big U”
We’re pretty nuts about Paper Television, the new album by the Portland indie-pop duo The Blow; it’s full of plonky synths and innocent, breathy vocals from lead singer Khaela Maricich. “The Big U” has a threadbare backing track, and Maricich’s description of a love triangle’s tangles and snarls is both defensive and strangely grateful.
