Sleigh Bells – Born to Lose

December 15, 2011 1 comment


First single off the upcoming album Reign of Terror.

Anyone who’s read this blog for a while knows I’m a pretty big Sleigh Bells fan.  I suppose half of everyone who’s ever watched a Honda commercial now is, but in the spirit of hipsterism, I had a download of “Infinity Guitars” up way the fuck before Treats was ever released or announced, or before Sleigh Bells was really anything but a duo selling CD-Rs (or before MJF was a dotcom, apparently).

Point is: I like Sleigh Bells, have for a while.  This is a bit of a different sound for them.  But it’s still mostly Alexis being a badass female vocalist over guitar riffs, which is the primary source of my audioboner.  Just sounds a bit cleaner, which could be good or bad if the final product sounds similar.

But my audioboner is biased and circumcised.  What do you think?
