Playing gigs with Dan Deacon and Girl Talk will most likely get your band some attention. It certainly did for Australian band The Death Set (now living in Baltimore) who have been getting some blog press lately. The delightful weirdos over at 20 Jazz Funk Greats turned me onto these raucous, video-game inspired screw-heads. Their music zig-zags across the themes of positivity, egotism and irritation. Just what you need.
