What's The Story?
The Fashion are a recently broken-up band from Denmark. I have to steal Wikipedia's adorable description, that "their musical style has been compared to a mix of The Rapture, Beastie Boys, Head Automatica, and LCD Soundsystem". Like Knives is from their self-titled second (and, tentatively, last) release.
Who's To Blame?
It wasn't not on an episode of Gossip Girl.
Why ♥ It?
That four chord main riff is cocaine, and The Fashion know it. Every now and then, they let the focus drop for some other instrumentation, but it always remains like that bad habit. The vocals are catchy like Black Kids, the drums have the same kooky energy you'd hear in the Arctic Monkeys, and the bass is fuzzy like The Killers.
Like Knives doesn't offer anything entirely original, but it does indie rock staples just right.
