The Noise-pop duo from Brooklyn has been getting a lot of hype throughout the blogosphere.  Maybe too much considering that their debut album Treats isn’t scheduled to be released until May 11th.  They are getting a lot of support behind them though recently inking a contract to release the record on M.I.A.’s NEET imprint of Mom and Pop Records.  ‘Crown On The Ground’ does show some influence by M.I.A. 

The band will also be getting their live show out there this spring and summer with performances at  SXSW, Coachella, and the Pitchfork Music Festival.  Not sure if I love them yet but they definitely bring something different to the indie rock table.
