My boyfriend gave me the most romantic Valentines Day gift of my life: a box of shinny new custom made The Untz and the Indie t-shirts! Going to rock these at Coachella this year and quickly garner several hundred thousand more listeners who dance their faces off, or chill. ❤
Today’s Indie: What You Want / Bombay Bicycle Club
What You Want / Bombay Bicycle Club
‘trying to keep a face up tonight / even when the guy’s got you right / coming off the wrong side, you know / oh you force it all’
Saw BBC play the Rickshaw Stop last night, and while I am the sleepiest cat on the block today, the boys put on a great show, highlighting a lot of songs from their newest album, A Different Kind of Fix. What You Want is a more somber track than their shake inducing single, Shuffle, but I found it the most striking. There is a Frightened Rabbit / Fleet Foxes vibe to opening vocals, which gives way to something with a bite to it, and I like the way echoed lyrics give the impression of a round in a lot of their stuff. Coffee please. #indie
Today’s Untz: Our Perfect Disease / The Wombats (Plastic Plates remix)
‘it was the perfect disease we had / something to argue and scream about / who can I see about contracting it back?’
For my next musical adventure and in my quest to balance my inner untz and indie, I am going to see Plastic Plates at the Mezz next Friday. Futuristic space disco, I am ready to dance my face off to you. Here is a fun little remix of The Wombats from him. #untz
