About a month or so ago – maybe longer – I made the drive to Syracuse with my girlfriend to check out Sleigh Bells. We never ended up seeing the show, but that’s a longer story for another time. Bottom line: I wasn’t feeling particularly well, and the situation – from the venue to the opening band – exacerbated my overall displeasure.
This, however, has nothing to do with Sleigh Bells apart from it being them who I was going to see. But I’d be lying if I said this experience didn’t affect my opinion of the band negatively. Their new track “Tell ‘Em,” however, goes a ways to repair that damage – despite it not being their fault at all. The track is from their forthcoming debut, Treats, and it’s a wall of sound throughout, a Howitzer of drums and guitar blasts. Consider yourself told.
