Donkey

CSS

Aggressive guitar riffs meet deadpan Brazilian cool. A heavier, sweatier evolution of dance-punk that trades lo-fi charm for high-octane indie sleaze energy.

July 9, 2008 · Sub Pop

Find on Amazon

Aggressive, ironical energy that feels like a chaotic night out in a crowded city.

Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden shift into the aggressive, guitar-driven chorus of Rat Is Dead (Rage) that breaks the dance-pop mold.
The hypnotic, repetitive bassline of Jager Yoga that builds into a frantic synth-heavy climax.
The surprisingly earnest vocal delivery on Beautiful Song that contrasts with the album's usual irony.
