As happens disturbingly often, this song sounds a lot like the last one. Sydney’s Bell Weather Department use the angular guitars and heart stirring drum patterns of Brooklyn’s finest, lifting their sound from bands like Interpol, The National and etc, but adding a softer pop vocal melody. It’s not bad, but it isn’t particularly memorable. The Pursuit of Blue has a grand scope and a feverish emotional tenor, but that’s true of every second indie rock tune these days. It’s not enough.
