Best New Band Since Mozart!


 

Almost all the good band names have already been taken : Velvet Underground, Joy Division, Sonic Youth… That’s why nowadays some bands have to choose a name that's still available just because nobody wanted it, like Suckers. They're from Brooklyn, they're friends with Yeasayer and they're fucking cool. I got to know them because Pitchfork put one of their songs called It Gets Your Body Movin' in their best new music list. It’s actually one the best - if not the best - song I’ve heard this year so far. It’s not the kind of song I usually like : really slow, really progressive, really indie. But what is disguised behind this experimental mask is a really good pop song. And guess what : if you're in the US, you can now buy it on iTunes, along with all the excellent songs of their first EP. You should buy it. They’re the next big thing.
