17. "Kiss It Goodbye" [iTunes Bonus Track]

I can't find the bonus track "Kiss it Goodbye" anywhere! Not even on iTunes anymore. Damn. I wanted to hear it. I think this is a great band. Found out about them because they're good friends with one of my favorite bands ever, Deerhunter. Cole Alexander occasionally posts on the Deerhunter blog here (because him and Bradford and all of them are awesome like that). Some of these tunes remind me of The Ramones and The Clash. Very retro. Very cool. Very punk. Very kick ass. "Mr. Driver" is a great track, only... the lyrics are completely inane. However, they still make it sound so cool.
