Philly’s resident “sex pop” glam rockers Night Panther come back with what seems like their hundredth gorgeous opus of the year with “Pleasure To Meet You”, the opening track to their self-titled debut LP which dropped late this summer. If you’re down with organ based anthems with some of the best vocals this side of the Mississippi, this track with be just the Wednesday wake-up you need (via yvynyl):
Say what you will about the “Loudness war” and audio peaking, some songs were just meant to be loud. Distractingly, explosively, jack-hammeringly loud. And when you pair these kinds of subsonic organ bellows with such angelic vocal harmonies, and set upon that sonic substructure a frenzied melody so addictive that even heroine addicts would drop the needle in a wide eyed stare, what can you expect but that your listeners be blanked, melting like wayward ice into parched soil. Some people like passive listening, music-as-background-filler, but Night Panther thankfully reject that. Here’s hoping they keep churning out the gold.
Night Panther is their debut album, released via our affiliate label Small Plates. Grab a copy on iTunes and pick up their limited 7″ here »
