San Diego indie rockers Crocodiles are about to follow up their 2010 record Sleep Forever with their third LP, Endless Flowers, which is out on June 5th. The group's first LP for new label Frenchkiss is filled with hooky, fuzz-bombed cuts like the title track and "Sunday (Psychic Conversation #9)," as well as standouts like the peppy, swooning ode "No Black Clouds for Dee Dee" and the grit-flecked sweetness of  "Bubblegum Trash."

“The Pretender”

Foo Fighters | 2007

This song wasn't part of the planned track listing for 2007's Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, and was put together in a day. "It happened after we recorded a lot of stuff," said Dave Grohl. Yet it ended up as the album opener and the lead single. Grohl called it "a stomping Foo Fighters uptempo song with a little bit of Chuck Berry in it." The singer hinted at the lyrics' political overtones: "Everyone's been f---ed over before and I think a lot of people feel f---ed over right now and they're not getting what they were promised."
