It's like post-rock guitar with a chick singing.

Kitten

not to be confused with the crappy metal band "Kitty".
(BTW, the dude is rocking a Stomp Under Foot Hellephant)

That was cool. Made me think of HUM a little bit on some of the guitar parts.

Totally. That guy plays what I like.

kitten is sweet.

I read the thread and thought "awesome, more hipster shit" but I actually liked the music.

Yep I dug this as well. Lots of space to what they have going on if that makes sense. Ripping guitar tone too.

bought , thanks for the heads up

Awesome dude!

FWIW, This band (Kitten) did the best Smiths cover I've EVER heard.

Most artists who cover the Smiths strip the song down to a simple arrangement in an attempt to be raw and real, effectively destroying the grandiose vibe of the original tune. This one sounds fuckin huge. I think I like it more than the original, which is total sacrilege.

so.. I bought the new record based on that tune in the op. To me it was kinda Sigur Rós ,ambient rock with a cool flavor . The rest of the recording however is pure shit . sorry but it's a material girl total wanna be and sadly falls very far from the little spark they have in that one tune . poo

pee

I sorry.

not your fault , someone steered her in the wrong direction , that tune is the only "band" tune on it all others are electronic drums and bad 80's synths .Katy Perry sounds like Sgt. Peppers compared to it .

Fwiw, I got the album too, and I love it. Tracks 2 and 3 are the only sings I don't like. It all sounds very 80's pop and her voice is spectacular.

Dude, Fretless, I'm sorry the synth pop isn't your thing. Her voice turns me on in a bad way. Love the moaning quality. It's like Roxette mated with New Order. Track 4 is like one of my favorite songs ever, atm.

I read the thread and thought "awesome, more hipster shit" and then I hated the song and felt that it confirmed my initial suspicions.

I like the 1st tune enough to buy it it would have been awesome to have been more of that , like Björk meets Sigur Rós , don't get me wrong I like plenty of Madonna , Annie Lennox , Gaga , Rihanna stuff . Just this new release needed stronger material for her to break in me thinks .

Pretty cool stuff. LOVE the guy shuffling papers in the first vid at 1:30 in.
