"FENCES" PHOENIX (2009)

Back in 2009, a second wave of synth pop bands was rising. The bands that were leading the charge were Phoenix and MGMT. Their songs made you dance. They made you feel young again. You don’t over explain songs like “Fences”. You just have fun with them. But I will say this. Phoenix, with these delicious pop songs, found their own brand of rhythmic hooks, lifting spirits with their pregnant pauses and tempo shifts.

“Once remembered now forgotten.”
