DAVID BYRNE APPROVES
he does! check it.
i was, and still am, a fan of their previous and critically acclaimed band P:ano. which hasn't been officially disbanded, but with the departure of co-founding member larissa loyva and the new moniker, it's quite clear. although their spielerei as No Kids isn't vastly different from their former doings, and even if you're familiar with P:ano's endless eclecticism and abundant theatrics, there might be some jaw-dropping and mind-blowing things going on when you give the trio's debut Come Into My House (via Tomlab february 2008) a first listen. it sounds like JT's shy nephew has finally stepped up to the plate and tries to give his cousin a run for his money.
opening piece Great Escape could be a P:ano song (it would certainly find a spot in the 24 song extravaganza and widely overlooked 2005 album Brigadoon) as well as a few other songs on the album, but there's a certain sense of smoothness present throughout the record that wasn't there before. in particular The Beaches All Closed and Bluster In The Air are suspiciously smooth, but nick told me he was on a steady diet of Mariah Carey and Janet Jackson when writing this album so it's not all that surprising after all. unlike its instigators, this indie variety of r&b comes not only with form or style, but also content. the structure of the songs rivals with the ingenuity of the Stax or Motown pop gems and as such we are honoured to have them as our guests. it's their first and only belgian date. you're gonna regret it if you weren't there. this is Last Supper level of iwasthereness, people!
for lovers of lykke li and justin timberlake.
