"If Looks Could Kill" is one of the highlights from Camera Obscura's
wonderful album Let's Get Out of This Country. The pounding percussion,
VU-guitars, and tremendous melody make it a highlight of 2006 as well. The
other two songs are fine B-sides: "Hands Up Baby" is a restrained and
atmospheric ballad penned by guitarist Kenny McKeeve, whereas "Alaska"'s an
organ-heavy rocker with some nice references to trees (when was the last
time you heard anyone singing about sycamores, birches, or hawthorns?) and
a solid groove. You'll absolutely need this EP to complete your CO
collection. The 7' version of the single replaces both B-sides with a cover
of "I Love How You Love Me."
