Let's just get this out of the way right off the bat—Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin are a very very very good band. When we wrote about them last February on the heels of a way-too-short performance at Sneaky Dee's, we ran through the band's history with drummer Philip Dickey, and gushed that they "have a knack for hooks, likeable melodies, and a kind of rough, untidy rock and roll sound that is always bordering on pop." (It's true! They do!) One year later, we have two more reasons to gush: first, there's Pershing, the band's fantastic new album just released on Polyvinyl Records that's full of more sunny, hook-filled, and catchy maybe-it's-rock-or-maybe-it's-pop goodness; and second, the Springfield, Missouri band is finally back in Toronto again this Friday night, with a midnight headlining set at the El Mocambo.
