I was thinking about Tomlab last night and decided to go home and find out what the label had been up to since last I checked. I decided to give Skeleton’s new album Money a spin for a bit and enjoyed what I heard. Warning: I’ve been on a Deerhoof/Animal Collective kick for about two weeks now, so just a heads-up for all you strict pop fans. There’s some good melody here, but it’s getting the crap kicked out of it along the way.
MP3: Skeletons – The THINGS
If you were to bury a 70s theme song, you’d have a head start on what the beginning of this song sounds like. The horns flare up and refuse to die, but Skeletons just keep on shoveling pound upon pound of noise to cover it up. Eventually the theme song gets frantic, fearing death, just as the clouds break through and “The THINGS” turns into a sexy noise affair — if there is such a thing.
