We got Xaphoon Jones’ picks. We got Brenton Duvall’s picks. Let’s keep it going, yeah? You might not know them yet, but Shadows On Stars are one of the best new indie acts out there. If you don’t believe that, then let’s just say they are one of my favorite new indie acts out there. That’s a fact. Blending genres is no big deal these days, but they do it with such style that post-punk, new wave, hip-hop, and vintage pop seem like best friends that grew up together. I mean, just listen to this.
Since they are one of those acts that grabs from all kinds of influence, I thought it would be interesting to find out what they’re listening to. Here are their five picks.
1. Maximum Balloon ft. Little Dragon – “If You Return”
This is our drunk anthem… Well, this and “Lovers Lane.” Thing is, they never rock music THIS GOOD in bars, so we resort to doing the Fried or Fertilized dance to every song that plays. Yes, we’ve Fried and Fertilized the fuck out of Ke$ha and LMFAO. Hell, we’ve even Fried and Fertilized to a horrible karaoke rendition of Mark Morrison’s “Return of the Mack.”
Here’s a little recipe for the P&P readers:
Consume healthy amount of Bourbon (preferably Bulleit or Woodfords Reserve). Note: *Do NOT use a mixer*
Do the Fried or Fertilized to your most or least favorite song.
Repeat steps 1-2 until ya eggs are finished. Swag.
