My affection for Beatles imitators is boundless (if not shameless) but I have to admit that its even more fun when a band you wouldn't expect it from surprises you by going "full British Invasion". "Is It True?", by Southern garage-rockers the Reigning Sound, has the band's fuzzed-out guitar sound, pulsing organ, and familiar stomping beat, but the tambourine and backing vocals (as well as something in the melody) remind me of mid-period Hollies. I don't have anything else to say about this one, so have a great weekend.
