Galia Durant and Carim Clasmann, who together form Psapp, seem to enjoy being contrary. Their debut album, Tiger, My Friend, is stuffed full of memorable, friendly tunes with a nod to traditional songwriting, but all the rough edges have been left exposed.
Tiger, My Friend wears its heart on its sleeve and skips through rain-wet streets, and it does so rather infectiously. Beyond the noises, the squeaks and the downright excessiveness of it, there's more to this record than just fun tinkering and hysteria. Psapp's lovelorn tunes tell tales of everyday insecurities with a refreshing honesty. And these simple sentiments somehow, through the music, become more than the sum of their parts.
