Friday afternoon's drag. We all know this, especially those of us who happen to be office drones. So, being the charitable music blogger I am, I thought, "why not give everyone a little bit of pep to speed along these long slow desolate hours that stand between us and the 48 hours of free time modern capitalism affords us." Plus, I was assigned a "Listener's Digest" post and I didn't want let down Mac. Who would let Mac down?

So, ahem, where was I? Oh right, the pep, I promised pep and I have pep in the form of a new single by Kishi Bashi. "Philosophize In It! Chemicalize With It!" is an uplifting burst of pop in the vein of Vampire Weekend that will hopefully remind you that it is still August and summer is nowhere near ending because summer never ends. Do you hear me? SUMMER NEVER ENDS! YOU WILL HAVE TO PRY THESE SUNNY DAYS FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS! NONE OF THIS FALL BULLS*%T! TAKE YOUR COZY SWEATERS AND...Ahem, sorry, lost myself a little. Well, no worries because this is a really fun song. I am going to go now.
