Whistling is like sex. If everyone did it, the world would be a much more peaceful place. If you can't whistle, "it's easy.just put your lips together." say Peter Bjorn and John. "Young Folks," the premier hit this up-and-coming Swedish group, provides legitimacy to catchy whistling songs in the realm of independent music. After listening to it, there is no need to revert to whistling Kill Bill or cheesy '80s songs. The band integrates guitar, drum kit, and bass with unexpected aspects such as conversational vocals (via The Concrete's Victoria Bergsman and PBJ's Peter Mor‚n) and conga drums in order to create a journey rather than a track. "Young Folks" is definitely the best of PBJ, as the rest of their music, although above average, can quickly become uninteresting. Thus. a quick fix of PBJ's finest is a mere click away.
