Okay, this one I actually know something about. And you probably do to as these kids seem to be getting a lot of hype lately. I was fine with their "tropical punk" of their first phase, but I like the more Joy Divisiony direction they've taken as of late. Nice transition guys. I can listen to "Don't Lie" on repeat for an hour or so. And I have a pretty good feeling that this will be taken down with haste, so you might want to grab it while you can.Here
This band is new to me. First listen had me thinking TV On The Radio but that's no bad thing. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteNo, TV on the Radio are horrid. I really think that if they weren't black and had cool beards no one would give a shit about them. Then again, those guys were in pretty good bands prior to getting all hip, so they do know their shit. But I think I've had my fill of barbershop quartet music.
ReplyDeleteAh well I don't see how you can deny the similarity, and they weren't even doing it first... I agree about the beards though. They should be pinned down and compulsorily shaved.
ReplyDeleteI dunno, I still want to deny the similarity solely because I'm a stubborn old git and I don't like TVOTR. And the beards certainly need to go as they're quite obnoxious.
ReplyDeleteFair enough. Far be it from me to stand between a man and his enmity. Hope I haven't tainted this record for you. Now where's that cutthroat razor...
