Imperial Teens: Feel the Sound

No less than two members of this band—Roddy Bottum and Will Schwartz—are openly gay. That fact in itself is no longer enough reason to give this CD a listen. But “Runaway,” its designated first single, with its bright, energetic hooky appeal, is. Driving, solid, drop-the-top-and-drive sounds. The added strings are a lovely, unexpected touch on “Don’t Know How You Do It,” too. Merge Records (mergerecords.com). —Review: Nancy Ford
