Dammit, I can’t stop blogging about Black Kids. The more I see and hear, the more I like.
Last November I pointed to this young Florida band’s four-song digital EP, “Wizard of Ahhhs.” It was free to download then. (Not any more.)
Now that Black Kids have blown up in England, they re-cut all of that “Wizard of Ahhhs” material for their debut CD – “Partie Traumatic” – which just came out in the U.K. It’ll be released in the U.S. on July 22.
A bouncy tune called “Listen to Your Body Tonight” was recorded during the original “Wizard of Ahhhs” sessions, but wasn’t included on the EP. It’s available as a FREE MP3, courtesy of the Pampelmoose music blog.
Click here to hear “Listen to Your Body Tonight” on my Vox blog.
This song was re-recorded for the new CD. So if you wanna have the original version, hit this link to commence downloading.
I'm bummed knowing that in a few months the girls of Black Kids will loose their adorable babyfat and the boys will start dating Paris Hilton. Until then, thanks for the free downloads!

ReplyDeleteOf course I was seriously crushing on my chunky sis. But the lead sounds too much like Robert Smith for me to get into this band.
ReplyDelete^ I have the benefit of being unaware of the British bands whose style they're ripping.
ReplyDeleteAnd here i thought i was the only undercover black man! Well, I am the only undercover GAY black man in the village!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog!!!!!
Just got a advance promo of the CD(what are they?That was never vinyl!).
ReplyDeleteThe fact they are sending it to lil 'ol me,means that there will be a huge push in North America.
I'm also getting flooded with promos,where 9 out of 10 have a reference to Gram Parson's in the reviews.
Do music reviewers have a annual meeting,where they decide who's name will be dropped for the next year?
