Explosive, lo-fi dance-pop that feels like a basement party in 2009. Gritty synths and shouted soul vocals for people who like their indie rock with a heavy groove.
Think About Life sounds like the most fun you could possibly have in a cramped Montreal basement. It is a collision of jagged indie rock, blown-out electronic textures, and a surprising amount of soul. The music is defined by its 'everything at once' philosophy, where cheap-sounding keyboards and frantic drumming create a wall of sound that is both chaotic and incredibly catchy.
What truly sets them apart is the vocal delivery of Martin Horn. Instead of the detached irony common in the mid-2000s indie scene, the vocals here are earnest, shouted, and often harmonized in a way that feels like a gospel choir trapped inside a noise-pop band. There is a restless, jittery energy to the arrangements that makes it impossible to sit still, yet the songwriting remains grounded in classic pop hooks.
Start with their 2009 album 'Family'. It captures the band at their peak, balancing their experimental noise tendencies with massive, anthemic choruses. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who wants music that feels raw, unpolished, and completely alive.
Think About Life is an indie rock band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, formed in 2005.
