Video of the Week This Week: Crocodiles -

I’m loving this song from Crocodiles. I don’t know much about it other than the obvious 60’s surf pop sound with a twist of 80’s goth, but it’s pretty good. They sound a bit like Surfer Blood and the two dudes that make up the band were apparently in both Some Girls and Dum Dum [...]
