Album title:
Mixing Business With Pleasure
Artist:
Kids On TV
Label:
Chicks on Speed Records
Straight outta the mixed bathhouse scene of Toronto, electro-punks Kids On TV have thrown together an album of dance rock on the cheap - reportedly recorded on a busted laptop while they were touring North America over the last few years. Sexy, witty, and queer, they have already been accused of 'teaching indie kids to fuck again'. With songs like Breakdance Hunx, about just how much money a blond-haired B-Boy willing to go down can make (they reckon five grand), they look set to aggravate some of the right people. In short, they're party animals, and they have a song called Cockwolves. If this band doesn't fit in well with the inaccurately named nu-rave gang, it'll be because they're a little too techno-happy. If we're lucky that won't matter though, and they'll be the ones to bring the scene some much needed sass. [James Blake]
