Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin

Sure, Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin is a band who immediately tests your ability to handle a long off-the-wall band name but hey - nothing wrong with that. Right? I mean, here we are...and you're still reading this. I bet you even give the song that's posted below a chance (if you haven't already). You're going to download it, and it will make you happy, and then you're going to want to see this band live. You should, it's bands like these that make the indie-pop world go 'round.

Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin are from Springfield, Missouri, and after a bit of blog love in 2005 they've recently found themselves a label-ular home at Polyvinyl. I love it when a band and the perfect label (for that band) come together. Given that Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin's sound falls somewhere along the lines of early Of Montreal and Beulah if fronted by Rivers Cuomo it would appear to be the perfect place for them to further explore and grow into their own sound. Good things Mikey. I see good things in store for this band and I can't wait to see them in one week at the EAR FARM sponsored Halloween show - see below.
