The New Time is a Philly band who loves Neutral Milk Hotel so much that they decided to name their first official single, an instantly catchy, highly charged hand-clapping rock tune, after the band (They also have a song called “Fiery Furnace” but I haven’t heard it.) Regardless, this one has just found a spot in my newest playlist, and hopefully in yours.
