EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: Red Wire Black Wire - Locked Out

Posted 11/18/2008 6:19 PM by Faith-Ann Young

We've had our eyes on these Wesleyan grads for a while but this time they bring us a poppier, hook-heavy track, "Locked Out." Who knew being getting fucked up and locked out of your casa could be so inspiring. But evidently it can be, with Red Wire Black Wire spit out cutting lyrics, heavy drums and breezy shoe-gaze guitar in the background. Meanwhile, we've had their decidedly darker "Compass" on repeat these days - it's fuzzed-out bass and twirling synths draw us in while references to "kill the old and pervert the youth" ensures the band never needs to worry about being classified as young and cute.

PS: They are hosting an 'erotic' record release party this Thursday @ NY's Lit Lounge, with bands Armchair and Deleted Scenes.

Sounds Like: The Bravery, Hot Chip, The Kaiser Chiefs, The Kooks
