Look at the cover: This is what would happen if the Vampire Weekend guys had started the New York Dolls. The Upper West Side-bred quartet craft fun rock-y pop socky suitable for both you and your mom. Former Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. appropriately produced the group's Strokes-reminiscent debut White Night EP. However, while the Strokes wallowed in a self-absorbed malaise, the Postelles are nothing but chipper. Their long-hyped, self-titled debut album promises more fun times.
