Liking Fol Chen a lot. A sweetness, a pop sensibility.  In the vein of Solex, The Blow.  Keyboard heavy. Synth-centric. Git yr pop hooks with a dash of complexity. Their song “In Ruins” got featured on network TV (CSI), but don’t hold that againt em.  (Reminds me of The Black Keys/Vampire Weekend sell out showdown on The Colbert Report.)  They are on the label, Asthmatic Kitty. Makes sense. Download an EP fer free with a bunch of remixes of In Ruins. Also really like their song Holograms prob cause the 7/8 dropped beat:

Love the website btw -- cryptic and crafty.

Adam caught them at The Vera Project on January 26 and got some great pics of a band that likes to keep their faces hidden. Check it:
