Well, Tokyo Police Club’s forthcoming EP Melon Collie and the Infinite Radness Pt. 1 is shaping up to be quite the wicked affair. “Not My Girl” emerged in February and is as hooky of a first single as you could hope for. Today, we’ve now been exposed to “PCH,” which is yet another winner from the Canadian quartet – you can give it a listen below.

“It was our one day off back in Toronto in the middle of a long, freezing Canadian winter tour and we wanted to spend it doing something ‘non-tour-y,'” explained Monks when discussing the song’s origins with The A.V. Club. “We had this song floating around, ‘PCH,’ that I had written in LA at one time—I was actually in Malibu when I came up with it, looking out over this crazy huge mountain canyon. I had lots of delay on my voice and this giant melody came out like I was gonna fill that space. So to give us a break from the cold ass winter, we called up our old friend Jon Drew, holed up in his warm studio for a day and recorded a song about a much sunnier place.”

Melon Collie and the Infinite Radness Pt. 1 will be released on April 8 through Dine Alone Records.
