The Kills: Sexy like a dare

So even though this is The Kills’ third album, Midnight Boom is my first experience with this raucous duo, and so far it’s been intense. The Kills have this sexy swagger about their music that pulls you in like a dare. What’s cool about this band is their songs’ reliance of beats to almost create the melodies but lack of an actual drum set in the band. The minimal instrumentation gives a raw and cold one-night-stand feeling to it all. The classic rock sound is infused it with a modern thrill it’s been craving since the Velvet Underground.  So basically, it’s awesome.
