Avevano iniziato in due e adesso lo sono di nuovo dopo l’uscita di metà dei componenti della band.I newyorkesi The Drums si apprestano a pubblicare il terzo album “Encyclopedia” in uscita a fine settembre e ci confermano alcuni dei tratti distintivi della loro musica nel singolo “I Can’t Pretend” ovvero scazzo (apparente) e melodie non troppo articolate ma che si insinuano nella mente ad ogni ascolto.

When you know it will end
And if you’ve got a friend,
You better leave with himWhen everyone wants to dance, I can’t stand up
I know that I need love,
But I can’t pretend, I can’t pretend
One day the moon will set for the last time
Maybe we’ll become part of a mountain
We’ve always learned these things
You know I’m not crying
But you know I’m not trying to care
It’s too hard to begin
When you know it will end
And if you’ve got a friend,
You better leave with him
When everyone wants to dance, I can’t stand up
I know that I need love,
But I can’t pretend, I can’t pretend
I can’t pretend
Remember when you first touched my hand
We sparkled inside at the same time
And now it doesn’t even matter
It’s too hard to begin
When you know it will end
And if you’ve got a friend,
You better leave with him
When everyone wants to dance, I can’t stand up
I know that I need love,
But I can’t pretend, I can’t pretend
I can’t pretend
Ooooooo~
I see us high, high on a mountain
I see us die, dying in a mountain
It’s too hard to begin
When you know it will end
I see us high, high on a mountain
I see us die, dying in a mountain
