Rarely are we excited to hit the 'publish' button on a radar piece. Who knows; maybe you guys have all heard of these nutsy Canadians three months ago and we're only now revealing ourselves to be super squares but either way, Gobble Gobble need to be on your radar. They're either gonna go up in a ball of flame into a mountainside, brought on by the sheer mental toll making music like this must inevitably exact, or they'll set your world on fire.
Just listen to them. It's like the swirling synths of Animal Collective on speed combined with the electro-enhanced beats of The Postal Service, filtered through The Party Spirit of Andrew W.K. channeling the aesthetics of Is Tropical and borrowing a few sci-fi prog outs from Yeasayer. It's kinetic, mad-cap melodic and we love it. And if you think you can sum them up better, then please comment below!
Their live show looks like it could be half decent too.

I ask for a round two against the pills! I liked how the pill ladies are on screen during the bridge portion of the song. I guess nothing can stop us music lovers from hearing music. :) [view article]

Thanks for sharing! I really like the use of the tom toms and the harmonics on the guitar. Nice touches. It adds more dimension when appropriate. [view article]
