Anna from London popsters My Tiger My Timing has taken time off from exercising her vocal chords to give the Devil’s blog an insight into her influences, the strangest place the band have played and her tips for saving money.
Rarely does the US release of an already-available foreign record seem like a true second chance, but kudos to Razor & Tie for picking up The Whip’s X Marks Destination for release on March 3rd because it’s a solid album that got overlooked in oh-eight’s deluge of post-Klaxons dance bands. The Mancunian foursome do the full-band electro-house thing and do it well, drawing just comparisons to Simian Mobile Disco and their more punkish offspring Late Of The Pier. "Divebomb" is X’s side-b epic, a five-minute-plus rager that builds from drippy disco pulses into a monster peaktime tune; sirens and general synth backwash smeared on for good measure. The band will be supporting the release next month with dates alongside Deadmau5 and LOTP, including stops at WMC and SXSW. Being 2009 and all, they also will be Twittering their way through the tour. Full itinerary after the jump.
