Glasgow indie rockers Dancer hearken back to the ’80s post-punk/new wave moment in a similar way to Cincinnati’s Artificial Go. Last year’s debut album 10 Songs I Hate About You drew a lot of comparisons to Life Without Buildings. On “Just Say Yes,” the lead single from Dancer’s newly announced sophomore album More Or Less, the guitars slice and morph a la Sonic Youth, but the rhythm section bounces along more like the B-52’s, a comparison encouraged by Gemma Fleet’s upbeat and anxiously buzzing vocals. New drummer Luke Moran puts a skip in the song’s step, and Fleet might have you yelling along with her by the time it’s over. Listen below.
