Brooklyn experimental pop darlings
Takka Takka have readied their sophomore full-length – the appropriately-titled
Migration – for release on July 29th via NY indie Ernest Jenning. True to its title, the record is a leap in sound from the quintet’s modest debut,
We Feel Safer At Night. Partially influenced by the spiritual awakening of lead singer Gabe Levine’s Balinese mother, the LP focuses on myth, prayer, and a sonic approach that incorporates a world of music. Everything from Gamelan to blissful tangles of
Feelies-esque guitar lilt fit into the gorgeous
Migration. In May, the band gave fans a peak at the new record with “Silence,” and last month Stereogum
unveiled “The Takers.” Now, with the release date looming, Takka Takka have offered up the shimmering “Everybody Say.”

Stereogum Resisting cynicism and self-pity, wry frontman Gabriel Levine sings the way people talk, resembling a nicer Lou Reed as he offers moral support to self-conscious loners who get caught up in society’s games, only to "break under pressure." Sample throwaway gem: "You pushed real hard / But you never pushed enough." - Spin Magazine
Takka Takka seems preternaturally gifted at conveying prettiness through guitar pop. The band’s casual swagger, both on record and stage, suggests an ease at pursuing this difficult task. - Time Out NY
