New Tokyo Police Club - "Tessellate (Tom Campesinos! Remix)"

Translate Into:
New Tokyo Police Club -

When we gave warm but tempered thumbs up to Tokyo Police Club's Elephant Shell, we made note that "somehow bassist/vocalist David Monks sounds more like Colin Meloy than he has previously, especially on 'Tessellate' ... Maybe it's just the way he says 'tessellate.'" Or maybe it's just that he says "tessellate" at all. Colin does love big words and sibilance. On this remix by Tom Campesinos! of, yes, Los Campesinos!, the strum and chirp of the instruments are darkened and distorted, revealing Monks in a more Reznor-esque revelry. Yeah, we're massively exaggerating, but still there is a contrast.
