Brazilian Girls
What? No, they’re not Brazilian, and only one of the members is actually female, but then again, NYC’s schizo-phonic Brazilian Girls have always strove to be anything but themselves. Between the down-tempo lounge excursions of 2005’s self-titled debut and the threatening house-driven atmospheres of 2006’s Talk to La Bomb, the Girls’ sonic designs are as interchangeably — and irresistibly — garish as their stage getups can often be. And this week, the trio return with the simplistically titled but no less daring New York City, which dips its feet into dark tropicalia, overcast soundscapes, and old-fashioned cabaret — and that’s not even half the record. Download the pop-psychedelia of single “Good Time” below.
