Don’t Stop – The Dodos Don’t Stop – The Dodos (Free Download / Pre-order)

Though Neko Case only sings on half of the songs from The Dodo’s upcoming album, No Color, she’s taking an active role in showing her love for the rest. Earlier today, she sent out this tweet declaring the track “Don’t Stop” to be her favorite on the record. While I haven’t heard the rest of No Color, I certainly hope that the rest of the tracks stack up to this one.

With manic, but somehow melodic, guitar picking and a driving combination of electric elements and percussion, this song is a fantastic group of sounds and styles. It’s the type that maintains it’s strength all the way through, making repeats a must and eager anticipation for more a given.
