Hotly anticipating their return to Montreal in just over a month, I've been periodically squealing in delight since partner-in-crime Guillaume (aka G'Homme) played this for me barrelling down Ste. Catherine last week. Baltimore-based Spank Rock's Sweet Talk hits similar po-funk spots as bi-coastalians !!! or AreYouFamiliar faves Velella Velella: a head-nodding, arm-thrusting number that finishes with a cascading schoolgirl chant, leavened with sweet percussion and their patented brash lyric stylings...
Heads would do well to check out a Spankrock video hosted by the BigDada crew, featuring some extensive MTL metro action, including a detailed explanation of the ACT. It's here in Quicktime format.

Everybody's favourite jet-set juvenile Douglas Ko of SLUM fame had 'em over in Vancouver last month, and from all accounts, it was incredible. Now, someone throw Think About Life on this bill!
Order Spankrock from BIG DADA or TurntableLab if you're so inclined.

I discovered these cats during a special appearance at Piknic Électronik last summer. They lit the place on fire. been a fan ever since. Mad props for all the mp3s btw. I'm supposing they are podsafe?
Welcome back!
Jay I like VOL.2 so much more. Props to spank rock.
Hey that's Jen Wong in the background! And no worries about calling back; we found lots of stuff to do :).
Yeah man, Jenn Wong's awesome... She was a casual contributor to the previous version of Goldkixx. Witness her infamous "DRUNKEN BEAR" post.
