Suckers are a fun new indie rock band from Brooklyn. They craft well-rounded, fun, poppy and sometimes anthemic tunes. The band chose to release their music at the most opportune time; this is definitely a summer album with its catchy hooks and sing-along choruses. The songs can vary widely in sound and therefore the album never feels repetitive. During my listen, I found that they could shift from sounding vocally like Band Of Horses to Klaxons. The band throws us a curve ball by introducing a horn on the track titled "Martha". Musically and vocally they even sound like Montreal's Wolf Parade at times. I dare you to not be bobbing your head or whistling along with infectious track "It Gets Your Body Movin'". With two vocalists (Austin Fisher and Quinn Walker), the band can take many directions and have many influences to choose from. As you can see it may be hard to pin them down to just one sound. This is a high energy album which I strongly recommend!
