This was a buzz for me. It’s not often I come across a band I take to so immediately but their musical style, the vocals, the look of the band all come together to make a coherent and genuinely different… something. It’s hard to define but these guys definitely have the talent and energy, judging from their website, to get wider recognition and fame. They deserve it. Think Pet Shop Boys put in a blender with Soft Cell, add a pinch of Scissor Sisters - only a pinch, these guys are a duo not an ensemble - and then, for good measure throw in some Human League, Ultravox, John Foxx and maybe, just maybe, a sprinking of another famous NY band, Sparks (anyone remember Beat the Clock?). I predict great things for these guys. And getting a ‘thank you’ email from one of them was kind of the icing on the musical cake.
