Holy Fuck

  • Hailed as one of the top 3 performances at Glastonbury Festival ’07 :
    "Electo-pop perverts Holy Fuck make a noise as abrasive as it is awesome ... these dark disco droogs thread every sound under the sun through their electric playground of wires. They come on like the nastiest electronic band since Suicide, or like the The Fall reworking their brains with screwdrivers, or Add N to (X) playing speed metal. They’re the kind of band that could hoof a hangover to kingdome come, or wring the neck of a banal main stage performance." NME Magazine

Boy/Crisis

  • On Planet Sex in the year 3000 S.D. (So Def), a single rose petal fell from the sky and when it landed on an endless wine-red sea, it made a thunderclap heard across the universe. This sound was Boy Crisis, is Boy Crisis and will always and forever be the twice-aforementioned band. The sound travels at the speed of sound across the vast hollows of the outer heavens penetrates the most sex-related parts of the human ear. The scent of Hibiscus wafts somewhere. A candle is blown out. Happy Birthday. I got you Boy Crisis.

Magic Wands

  • Nashville residents Chris and Dexy Valentine comprise the Magic Wands, a coed twosome with a penchant for drum machines, distorted guitars, and Blondie-inspired songcraft. The indie pop duo took root in 2007, when Chris happened upon one of Dexy's songs, the coolly detached "Teenage Love," while perusing MySpace. Dexy was living in Los Angeles at the time, but the two nevertheless began a long-distance relationship that same summer, bridging the physical distance between Tennessee and California with countless phone calls and mailed gifts (one of which -- a supposed "magic wand" -- inspired the group's name). Dexy soon left L.A. and relocated to Nashville, where she and Chris launched the Magic Wands with the proper release of "Teenage Love" on Ark Recordings. Appropriately enough, the track was issued as a digital single on February 14, 2008, and a subsequent appearance at the South by Southwest festival helped endear the newly minted band to larger audiences.
