premature opinion kills,

brash is the only word to describe my itchy trigger finger dismissal of the kills when i first heard their brand of visceral swagger rock last year. embarrasing due to both my snap judgement aswell as that this is their third fucking album and i'm only now hearing about them. their sound is bare and raw, no drummer, instead a drum machine provides razor beats.

they released their new single's video this week "last day of magic". not as melodic as my normals tastes, maybe the reason it took me a while to warm to them. here's the film and another track taken from "midnight boom".

yeah i know that's an old album cover but it's a good picture, smart arse.
