Go Chic, um, oh yeaahhhh

January 24, 2011

I love, super love, the energy this band brings. It’s really all about the fun. Go Chic’s album, I Am Confused, is an effortless ball of energy. Elctro-pop-rock. Fun. No thinking … just all out pogo-ing mindless fun.  It’s spazzy. It’s mad catchy. Think Le Tigre, minus the political edge.

Check out this video made by Adrian Younge (Black Dynamite) about recording/recording equipment using lots of old footage and his (new) music. Funky, and educational.

… not just for today

  activate yourself, civilly.

Can’t lie, it wasn’t instant love. It took a minute. But now, it’s an obsession. I freakin’ can’t stop listening to Sleigh Bell’s Treats.  Rad chick vocals, rad industrial-ish music. Really a new take on things. The vocals and music pair together effortlessly, even though they really shouldn’t. The music is full and sometimes harsh industrial noisy rock. The vocals, pop – varying from lite and airy to edgier.  

Now I know when you click the video below, it won’t play, but follow it to Youtube. Song & video rock. And the video was made by a high school kid!
