Sleigh Bells

I know I'm super late on the internet hype machine for this one but this album is still awesome to me. Sleigh Bells are the two people to the left, and the dude is from metalcore band Poison the Well. Except it's not metalcore at all. Sleigh Bells play this incredibly loud, noisy version of dance-able electro, with airy female vocals that would sound more at home in a dream pop band. Sort of like how my favorite album from last year, Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors, succeeded because it was a strange blend of such disparate influences into a singular, consistent sound. Download Treats and then begin to dance. It's good for your soul. Recommended if you like Death From Above 1979, M.I.A., or The Go! Team.

This guy, Vincent Frank. One day he decided to put together a bunch of random synthpop samples and make awesome music. This dude has to make the best synthpop / electronica I've ever heard, and to be honest, he's not too bad of a looker, either. In my opinion, this guy seems to be a genius. One of my favorite British artists, and definitely made my favorite synthpop overall. He recently released his debut full length album, Complete Me. Apparently he's releasing an acoustic album called 'Completely Me', gonna try and look for that. Check this out, dogs.

EDIT: Found the Acoustic album, and it's pretty good. The dude can sing, without a doubt.
