SONG OF THE DAY [#335]

'i'm not going to teach your boyfriend how to dance with you' | black kids

here's your party band for the summer of 2008, kids, and yet another testament to the power of the internet.

black kids blew up after they posted some songs on their myspace page. the bloggers all went ga-gag nutty as they are often want to do, the labels noticed, they got signed. easy peasy. ah, it's the american dream, innit?

despite the inevitable endless cries of 'best. band. ever!!!!!!!! LOL!' that are sure to follow the release of their debut, 'partie traumatic' on july 22, black kids really know how to have some fun their music. they remind me quite a bit of new young pony club, which is probably why i like 'em as much as i do. of course, black kids don't have lou hayter, but hey, not everyone can. i really shouldn't be so picky, i suppose.

enough talk. strap on your seatbelt 'cos black kids are about to launch you in to the fun zone.
