the drums – how it ended (jeremy summer camp remix)
the fall season is in full swing, but a little summery sparkle couldn’t hurt. this drums remix by summer camp’s jeremy warmsley (with a last name like that, he must sunshine in his blood) is a sweet, stripped-down, and tender jewel among the cooling weather. fine a patch of sun to enjoy. www.thedrums.com www.facebook.com/summercampmusic

the drums – portamento – money
the brooklynites are releasing their sophomore album this september and have released the first single yesterday. they do catchy so well, it’s kind of stupid. fans will not be disappointed with this new infectious jig. the lyrics fit in very well with the state of our country’s economy, so i’m sure a good percentage of us can sing them loud and proud. www.thedrums.com
