Hearts!Attack
Hearts!Attack is Alexis, Darren and Sam, and if their myspace-bio is believable (which I for some reason doubt, wonder why?), we are dealing with some great personalities here… According to this bio, Alexis used to be the best rapper alive, Darren left his Norwegian death metal band after they won Eurovision and Sam has a past as a member of the highly underrated late 90s boy band “BoysRFun”…
What I KNOW is true, is that they have made a 3 track ep, and that they have done everything themselves “using some acrylic paint and a laptop”. Their songs are great fun to listen to. It’s very rough and jangly, but with a fantastic energy and some great tunes. Think Esiotrot with boy/girl vocals, an even janglier Los Campesinos! or something like that…
MP3: Hearts!Attack – If You Were Dead
The band has just set up a digital shop at bigcartel, so now you can go here and buy their ep for 1,50£. Worth it, – it’s good!

Dood sick find, it sounds so…messy, but in a good way. When I heard this it made me think of the song “I’m not gonna teach your boyfriend” by the Black kids (nice name huh) but not as cutesy.
Two quick questions, if you get a chance, can you check out my blog? And that music player, where did you find it? I’ve been trying to find a good one for awhile now. Thanks

Corey, thanks for the comment. There are a lot of players like this for wordpress, but I don’t know if there are any for blogspot. Try a google search.
