Stream: Army Navy, ‘The Long Goodbye’

Down to every candy-coated collision of chord and chorus, Army Navy’s “The Last Place” is one of the finest guitar-pop albums you will hear this year, the kind of record – along with, for example, Apex Manor’s “The Year of Magical Drinking” – makes power-pop sound as if it were just conceived. We previewed the album with frontman Justin Kennedy in February, so in the interests of an update, here you go: “The Last Place” will be available digitally starting Tuesday for one month as an eMusic “Selects” pic; then the album will be out on the band’s imprint Fever Zone starting July 12. Here’s another taste.
