For me The Platinum Boys are so synonymous with summer, redolent as they are of rolled down car windows, coolers of beer and all that, that it almost feels a little disorienting listening to them off season. But we'll take new Platinum Boys music whenever we can get it, and there's some on the horizon: Next month Chicago's Maximum Pelt Records will release a new single from the Milwaukee rock 'n' roll quartet, and you can stream a track from it called "New Kind of Love" from it now. Like just about everything this band releases, it's short, punchy and wonderfully good-natured.
Stream it below and catch the group at their release show Friday, Feb. 3 at High Dive.
