"Perversely articulate, these two are bad nite out"- Secret Society of the Sonic Six press issue.
With the recent electro-clash revival plenty of posers have been strutting their scutt on the scene, so it's always nice to hear something that sounds authentic. While the Secret Society of the Sonic Six may has yesterdays electro/no-wave vibe down pat, these guys have turned all of the complexity and contradiction of the electro-clash era on its head. Their sound produced is so thick with irony; you could use it as sandwich spread. I have two words to describe this Los Angeles duo:
Fucking
Amazing
It is your duty to go to their next show and pick up their self-title single which contains J Ward and Release the Chic. Or if you aren't in LA check out their label Broadway Jungle for all of the connections.
