STRFKR
In the past, Portland, OR-based Starfucker (STRFKR) has received almost as much attention for its not-exactly-accessible moniker as for its immensely accessible dance hooks. But, having flirted briefly with a couple of name changes, the group is now firmly settled on Starfucker and so the focus can rightly return to what got people talking in the first place: the quartet's endlessly catchy, hook-laden pop in the tradition of Phoenix and Of Montreal. "Reptilians", the band's second album, focuses primarily on death and the end of the world without being the slightest bit depressing. With lectures by Alan Watts interspersed through the record, death is responsible for giving meaning to life, expressed via vibrant crescendos, explosive drum beats, and layered synth melodies that drive a theatrical live show where dance party meets Roxy Music.
