Jacuzzi Killers

It seems to me like Brooklyn is becoming the mecca for electro/psychadelic/pop/indie whatever you want to call it artists.  I don’t really post much that would fall into this catagory, and to be honest, I wasn’t even that into this Boy Crisis track when I first heard it, but something about this catchy track titled “Dressed to Digress” has had it rattling around in my head the past few days.  Like mega superstars MGMT, this quartet also hails from Brooklyn, and coincidentally, also attended Wesleyan University.   Are these guys just riding on the coat-tails of MGMT’s success, or are they truly something special?  I can’t really answer that, but check out this track…even if you don’t like it at first, I think you will after a few listens:

Boy Crisis - Dressed To Digress

…and tell me you don’t see at least some similarity (more than just gimmicks) between the two sounds:

MGMT - Time To Pretend
