Myth Takes
Myth Takes.
Myth Takes, the new offering from Sacramento indie-electro-disco-punk rockers !!!, struts and shakes its way through ten fervent and feverish tracks the same way lead singer Nic Offer does through a live performance.
The album opens with Offer's whispery and gritty chanting over a dark guitar riff straight out of an old western. This title track vibrates with energy, but of a more latent kind than the bulk of the album, a set of sexy dance-floor-ready pieces ready to combust with vigor and confidence. "All My Heroes Are Weirdos" shimmies and crescendos to a full drum circle beat at the end and listeners abandon all hope of sitting still. "A New Name" writhes into a shrill chorus worthy of a disco anthem, and funky "Yadnus" smacks of Stevie Wonder crossed with Nine Inch Nails. !!! certainly has a formula down, creating well constructed and beat driven licks that keep listeners in constant anticipation of a climax worthy of the buildup...
