Ted Leo - "La Costa Brava"

Ted Leo - "La Costa Brava": "An interesting little number - Ted Leo provides his usual high-quality rock, but he mainly bases this song around a subtle, repeating guitar section. It's the kind of pleasant melody that you want to keep going, but he keeps things interesting by occasionally punctuating the song with some ace indie-rock chord riffings. And then, just when you think the song's going on for too long (around the five minute mark), Leo starts layering in different vocal parts, giving the song a completely new tonal dimension, even as the music stays constant."
