She wants revenge

New band with great song takes the eighties to heart with an arrangement that evokes memory of a Casio organ.

‘She wants revenge’ is a band.
Their song ‘Tear you apart’ is played quite frequently on Sirius’ alternative music channel and as opposed to the general generic and classic alternative around it, it sounds fresh. Fresh like something that just jumped back to life from the eighties (there was some good music when I was growing up, damn it!).
The production is very light, just a drum machine (or a very basic beat) that sounds very much like what my Casio organ would produce, or better yet, something out of London or Manchester before the happy happy of E. In other words, another Joy Division inspired band. And their singer has a very dry voice that works very well with the minimalism accompanying him. Like very early Depeche Mode instrumentally, with the brooding overtones of their better albums.
Whatever. Just sharing. This song rocks.
See them in a video for a lesser song.
The duo have a really irritating website, but most bands do.
Coming to the Middle East in Cambridge Feb. 14. May even go.
