Liily’s “Toro” builds off of the work of Bloc Party, Foo Fighters and Franz Ferdinand, with a bit of the dirty 1970s rock sound (MC5) interspersed in. Of particular note during Toro has to be the band’s scintillating guitars and technically impressive interplay between the drums, vocals, and aforementioned lead. Liily’s charisma is undeniable – the lyrics are supersonic, bringing the assertive drums and riffs into an entirely higher plateau. The last 30 seconds or so is some of the best straight-forward rock we’ve experienced this year. Check out the video for Toro below the jump and let us know what you think of Liily’s latest.
