My typical anti-hipster prejudices come alive with bands like White Rabbits. I can’t put a finger on why: They’re originally from Columbia, Missouri, hardly a mecca for cool, and seemingly far enough from Brooklyn to avoid the spread of hipster swine flu. But the Brooklyn bug bit these boys, and quicker’n you can drain a can of PBR, they’ve packed the U-Haul to Greenpoint to write songs about the Long Island Sound.
And yet, here I am posting their video … because it’s good. I know, I’m self-defeating at the best of times, inherently contradictory at the worst, but I got sucked in by their pretty superior 2007 Daytrotter set, and now I find myself - gasp - a fan.
