Alright, I've been sitting on this band for a while and have only stuck with their song, "Helena Beat." "Helena Beat" has been my go to dance/chill song for the past 4 months. It is an amazing track that builds you up until it hits the chorus and is as catchy as any song you will hear. Foster the People really grabbed my attention with this track a while back. Then a couple of weeks ago, they came out with a music video for their song, "Pumped Up Kicks," gave it a listen and didn't quite enjoy it, but I kept seeing it pop up on other blogs. So, the more I saw it, the more I read about it, the more rave reviews I read. Some blogs, e.g. Pigs and Planes, said it was one of the defining songs of Summer 2010. Then, It had to be good, I said to myself. Giving the song, and video, another opportunity to redeem itself, I listened and was extremely pleased. The more listens I gave "Pumped Up Kicks" the happier I got. It's a great song that, had I listened to it in the summer, would have defined my summer also. Thank you Foster the People. Enjoy.
