Kiss Me Deadly - Dance 4
While it is true that I wrote about this band merely a month ago, I just can't get this song out of my head. 'Dance 4' is the track that leads off Kiss Me Deadly's staggeringly pretty EP, "Amoureux Cosmiques", and it's even better than 'Dance 1' (the song I posted last month), with more glittery, scrawled guitar lines, and breathy-sex vocals from Emily Elizabeth. However, where 'Dance 1' just wants to seduce you into something quick and sweaty, 'Dance 4' is more like a slow-burning, searing crush coming into its own- where you realize, gradually, that tender glances and small, delicate touches can accrete into something meaningful, surprising, addictive. To put it another way: 'Dance 1' is the unquestionably attractive girl/guy who is hot and knows it, while 'Dance 4' is the guy/girl who is awkwardly adorable and is just prime marriage material, etc. This song will take care of you and cuddleslut it up with you on cold nights.
"Amoureux Cosmiques" is out now on Alien8, and you should buy it. (Produced by Jace Lasek of the Besnard Lakes). I cannot fucking wait to hear what their album (which is due this Fall) sounds like.
