Ra Ra Riot is such a great name. It flows off the tongue and gets you excited for what you're going to hear from them. Luckily their music lives up to the name. These guys are great! Extremely catchy, superb at transitioning from fast and upbeat to a slow croon, and masterful at crafting infectious hooks, they'll Ra Ra your socks right off. They're good enough to spark debates over whether they or Vampire Weekend are a cooler band...so get on it! Going to warn you, this is one of the weirder music videos I've ever seen.
Also, I'm shocked, but they are giving out Boy (one of their most popular and best tracks) for free on soundcloud.

I'll be gone on the Beartooth Pass bike trip until Sunday, so until then, check out some more Ra Ra, refresh on some Vampire Weekend, and discover some new musical gold!
