The Oedipus Project
Best Coast continues to create some of the best garage pop.
The songs by Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno are always refreshing and memorable.
The 7-song EP Fade Away will be out later this month.
All 7 are wonderful. Listen to two here: the first single “I Don’t Know How” and my current fave “Who Have I Become?”
“I Don’t Know How”
“Who Have I Become?”
Best Coast is Bethany Cosentino with musical partner Bobb Bruno.
The Only Place will be their 2nd album and songwriter Bethany once again embraces pop melodies that always remind me of summer as she did with “Boyfriend” from 2010’s Crazy for You and in 2011 with Adult Swim’s “Gone Again”.
“The Only Place” is also the first single and a free download.
I associate summer with Best Coast. Last year’s “Boyfriend” helped define the summer of 2010.
This year we have we have “Gone Again” featured here in June.
Now Bethany and company give us “How They Want Me to Be”, a new song that she says will probably be re-recorded and included on the second album. Free download as well.

Plus, I’ve included the Drew Barrymore video for the song “Our Deal”.
Get More: MTV Supervideo, Music, Best Coast
The Los Angeles trio called Best Coast, fronted by singer/songwriter Bethany Cosentino, evokes the Girl pop sound of the 60’s. From their just released debut album Crazy For You, “Boyfriend” is available as a free download and is the Song of the Day.
