MP3 of the Week: Township

DOWNLOAD: Township, "Sandy" (mp3)

It’s been just less than a year since Township cemented their place in Boston rock history, joining the ranks of the Neighborhoods, the Dresden Dolls, and, uh, Slaughter Shack with a victory in the 29th Rock ’n’ Roll Rumble. And now, as local message-boarders squabble over this year’s just-announced Rumble line-up, Township have finally quenched the thirst of the so-called “Townies” — the band’s fans, who have been patiently snacking on the band’s Ladywood EP in anticipation of a full-length — with the release of Coming Home. “Sandy,” like most Township songs, looks back to the ’70s, and what it finds is the jaunty shuffle and the guitarmonies of “The Boys Are Back in Town,” over which frontman Marc Pinansky waxes optimistic about a troubled relationship.
