snow in march


I love me some Miike Snow.
and after getting the chance to see them at Lollapalooze this year I now know I need to see them at a better venue/time. aka NOT AT 1PM IN THE SCORCHING SUN IN A FIELD AT GRANT PARK!

That said, word is they might be making their way for sxsw, and as baby jesus is my witness, seeing them again will be my goal for that ENTIRE WEEK! No kidding.
That's how great they are live.

The way Bloodshy and Avant play completely live is great to see. Because not only are they amazing producers, but they can run that shit on a seconds notice!!!

If you didn't know about them, they've been in the producing game for a while. Even going in the pop world. You know that one song of Britney's that you hated that you actually liked and had it in your head for months. You know, Toxic. Yeah, it was them.

I found a great article on them explaining so much here

High Points:
Unlike some dance-pop acts, Miike Snow don't use backing tracks or computers during their live show, adding any anything-can-happen excitement. "I think it's more fun for the audience and it's more fun for us," he says. "Something goes wrong every night, almost. We have so much gear, so there's so much that can go wrong every minute. Last time we played L.A., we blew a fuse in the whole building."

The trio recently released a video for the single 'Black And Blue,' and Karlsson says they have remixes in the works for Kings of Leon and an unreleased song featuring MIA, Santigold and Amanda Blank.



Needless to say, they are ahhhhhmazing.

So enjoy this video of theirs below for their single, Black and Blue


So i'm hoping for some sxsw action
and speaking of, they just released 200 more acts.
I cannot handle starting on sxsw right now, so i refuse to look at it.
But in case you are crazy enough to start the excitement THIS EARLY,
Be my guest
