Heart in Your Heartbreak

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Heart in Your Heartbreak

The indie power pop of The Pains is back, this time proving that it's not just a summertime sound. With a drum beat that sounds like a car barreling ahead, "Heart in Your Heartbreak" has the sound of moving forward that earlier songs such as "A Teenager In Love" captured so well. The pop elements however are even more apparent in this new single; the verse-chorus structure, synth embellishments and a guitar solo that sounds like 1994 all make it easy to love. Add to that some ambiguous lyrics that make less sense written down than heard and you've got indie pop at its finest.
