neon cowboys

Just now, I was about to bunker down to do some homework but I was awash with a state of dread – I didn’t have anything to listen to.

My external hard drive is disconnected, so for a moment I had to think of somewhere else to get some music. You see, I took the hardware to school to back-up two years worth of material before the administration does the massive purge they’re promising.

In a forlorn attempt to make myself feel better, to find some love waiting for me in my inbox, I checked my email, only expecting the usual pen1s enlarg1ng promises. Oh. What a pleasant surprise. New music from THE BADICAL!

THE BADICAL

The Badical are actually a pair of robots disguised as a couple of doods who pull this entire masquerade only to get chicks to dance. It works. Check out their robotdisco grooves and try to peel your lady from their android love affair.

The combination of synthetic cowbell tinking and subtle acid tweakery in “Manhole 69″ sounds like a craving for milk and specially-baked brownies. The track makes me feel a little bit like an electric cowboy surrounded by neon corals and mechanical bulls in some sort of glowing euphoria. This is the return of acid.
