Feeling like a roller coaster ride back through the history of music, You Know Better pulses with echoes of everything from contemporary indie vibes to the classic days of post-punk era new pop, seventies folk rock confidence, sixties psychedelia, and the delicacy and dexterity of Laurel Canyon’s singer-songwriter scene.
That’s a lot of ground for Mylittlebrother to cover, both in terms of genre and geography, era, sound and style, but cover it they do. The result is a song that tips its hat to almost every worthwhile musical moment and movement of the past, makes an excellent sound for the here-and-now and points brilliantly to a bright new musical future.
