Dodos - Fools

Dodos - Fools

This week's Sound Opinions coined the term One Note Wonders: bands that may only do one thing, but they do it really well. I thought this was a neat concept; rather than deride these bands like One Hit Wonders, they praised them for their singular sounds. Examples included The Ramones, Stereolab, and The Strokes.

I picked up this Dodos album after the stellar review from Pitchfork. I really enjoy the songs, but they flow together in a way that makes one song sound like the next. It sounds like another One Note Wonder to me, but I say that as a complement.
