New York City's Harlem Shakes recently put out an awesome debut LP - Technicolor Health. Perfectly inventive and ecclectic tunes without being unaccessible. Love these guys. Think of them as a mix of the group vocals and catchy upbeat riffs of Ruby Coast, a jazz band, a tiny bit of 90s arcade game synth backtrack & lyrics that Bob Dylan might write and then weeze.
(And that's just the album opener)
It's hard to define these guys, but they sound great. You've just got to listen for yourself. Don't forget to check out their EP Burning Birthdays-EP, where Lexy, the lead singer, subtly sounds like Paul McCartney. The Harlem Shakes' catalog is a great one to have, they play a rad live show as well.
