don't see the NO AGE or Boredoms influence…Liars, possible.
they are very percussion heavy. |

PAULYBEE likes 'em especially. They're on the new Crystal Castles, which is an okay outing.

Yeah, they're a bit Liars, but more danceable. And not in the dance punk kinda way, just in the so much percussion going on it's almost a techno thing way.
They get some cool sounds. |

they are extremly average, but they do rock in an ac/dc rockin kinda way live.
definitley not the best la has to offer when taking into account no age, mika miko, and especially the mae shi.

Very fun band, not the greatest or anything but I enjoy them immensely. They were great fun live though, despite their prancing about on stage =\. Their show with Crystal Castles was one of the funnest shows I've ever been to. I also have to thank them for helping me develop an interest in Crystal Castles when I saw they did a split together. I nearly shat a brick when I saw they were playing in my town

love no age! mika miko are extremely average. mae shi are average but their shows really make them respectable. but the health cd is imo the best cd over anything mika miko/mae shi put out. weirdo rippers is amazing and i probably luv that one just as much. i would say right now HEALTH is the band of the moment in LA. they're getting more & more popular. i'm not sure if HEALTH is the best LA has to offer but one of definitely at the moment. a danceable liars? not sure if this person's getting HEALTH mixed up with another band. i'm trying to find a good comparison, but i really can't to be honest. i could always try and force a comparison and say a tribal cock esp/liars but even that would be inaccurate. i think HEALTH are HEALTH. keep an eye on this band…they're gaining momentum! the HEALTH cd is amazing. |

i'll probably give them a shot when they play here in a few weeks to see what they are like live.
there's quite a buzz around them at the moment it seems, but the things i've heard from them so far don't really justify that. |

as atari said, i really like em. but they are gonna get swallowed up in the whole crystal castles , i hate using this word but, scenester hip thing and probably the next album will be poor.. i fear a rature like downfall for them in the opposite direction of their popularity.. but the lovepump united album is excellent so ill leave it at that for now.....
