Sounds of Hopscotch #3: The Toddlers

Perhaps what I like most about Chapel Hill outfit The Toddlers is that their sound is nigh on impossible to categorize. In one song I heard the golden 70s Laurel Canyon strains, a little bit of Bryan Ferry's coolest Roxy Music vocal moments, and some long-forgotten Vegas lounge act all vying for the reigns. And there's plenty more where those came from, too. There's a heavy retro vibe to their sound, but darned if you can really figure out from whence it's come. And darned if I don't really, really dig it.
