Despite the Missouri quartet's now-gloomy name—the pompadoured Russian leader was still alive and kicking when it formed—Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin plays highly accessible indie pop for sweater-wearing people who think Death Cab For Cutie is too intense. Perhaps it's appropriate, then, that Death Cab guitarist Chris Walla will produce the band's upcoming follow-up to 2008's Pershing. Those who enjoyed the group's first two albums should find comfort in the band's last released track, the mid-summer, Tom Petty-esque sing-a-long romp "Cardinal Rules," crafted as an anthem for the group's hometown minor league baseball team, the Springfield Cardinals. Judging from that, it's doubtful the band will be pushing into deep, gloomy territory anytime soon.
