Nightbox


These guys have have just released their eponymous debut EP. Hailing from Toronto, Nightbox have embraced the dance-indie scene and released a rather quite entertaining 4-track EP which nods to contemporaries such as Two Door Cinema Club and Foals.

It feels kind of pointless and name-dropping to add that the EP was produced by Sebastien Grainger (Death From Above 1979) and AL-P (MSTRKRFT), but their handwork isn't too overpowering and leaves room for the band themselves to excel.

The first 'single' Pyramid is a free download here but the whole EP is on soundcloud so go for it.

I was also curious as to what a "nightbox" actually is, so I googled it and came up with this.
Apparently it's "for sassy ladies only" so I'm not sure if, ging by this, I'm even allowed to listen to the band anymore.

  1. I once saw a sassy lady! It makes you wonder doesn't it. Yes it does. Allow me to quote a song quite right for times like these "Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
    (A hill in the deep forest green)
    Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
    (Tracing of sparrow
    On snow-crested brown)" peace

  2. Holy crap YES! Sim' & Garfunks had sassy down to its bare bones. Them two are sassy as saucepans baby, and you know it.

    To quote another song quite right for times like these: "I am a rock, I am an island.
    I have my books and my poetry to protect me,
    I am shielded in my armor,
    Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.

    Pure sex. And magic. And geology.
