If you like your music in two-to-three minute pop-punk chunks, then Tokyo Police Club is the band for you. This four-piece from Ontario is releasing their second full length album titled "Champ" via Mom and Pop Records on June 8. If it is anything like their first LP, it won't quite reach that "full length" status in time. The eleven tracks collectively didn't clear the half-hour mark.From the initial listen to their new track, it seems like the band may be expanding their horizons. The new song "Breakneck Speed" is anything but swift. With a length of 3:45, it is easily TPC's longest number to date. The song itself is a focused mid-tempo grinder, featuring needling guitars, nasally vocals and twinkling keyboard fills. According to their website, their touring schedule starts at home in Ontario, hits Europe, then the States supporting Passion Pit. No Chicago dates are listed yet. Let's hope for a Pitchfork festival stop.
