Looking for something a bit different? Those of you who seem to never let anything slip past their ears may already have latched onto these guys, but this is just a recent discovery for me. Hercules and Love Affair. Im immediately drawn to them due to the guest vocals of Antony of Antony and the Johnsons on the single ‘Blind’. I really cant flick through my itunes without settling back onto it. His warbling voice warms my eardrums. Basically Hercules and Love Affair are a new act to be signed to DFA, with their debut album dropping very soon. It seems DFA have really been my saviour from the current bombardment of hypercolour infused, compression laden, overdriven electro producers/remixes that fly everywhere these days. Don’t get me wrong, I like the sound, but its just when the place gets full of tail riders that it starts to annoy me. Anyway, this post is about these guys. Enjoy. Oh, and check out the other new DFA band Bot’Ox. Nice.
