The Bean has inspired me to listen to The Kills when I need to feel invincible. This song never fails to get me pumped and I had to turn to it twice this week. If I was a boxer this song would be played while I step into the ring.
We saw them play last year and the title song from their album No Wow comes really close to sounding as sensual and dangerous as they look in concert. This is not the band to go see when you’re just out for a laugh, but if you love them they more than live up to their recordings. VV paces the stage like a caged panther and her bandmate Hotel seems to be the only one who can come close to her without losing a limb. At one point, I felt like I was looking in on a very private moment between them. They create such an intimate and dark world on stage that I cannot imagine them ever hanging out on the couch enjoying an episode of Seinfeld, but they sure can put up a great and memorable show.
Here it is for all of you who need to feel like you can take on the world.
The Kills – No Wow
