The video for Boy Crisis’ ‘Fountain of Youth’, directed by Jordan Fish (another Wesleyan alum) was filmed at McCarren Park Pool in Brooklyn this past August. It’s really freaking beautiful and definitely takes me back to my summer Sundays at the Pool before it closed. The whole thing is pretty damn cool - the costumes, makeup, choreography.
Not to mention that I’m absolutely obsessed with this track. Who’s pumped for tomorrow night?
I don’t have much to say - only that I hope you’re half as pumped as I am for the Das Racist and Boy Crisis show this Friday (or at least half as obsessed with Boy Crisis’ Fountain Of Youth as I am).
E-mail MILLTIX@GMAIL.COM for tickets. Include your name, cell phone number, and how many you’d like.
BOY CRISIS.
You may have heard that Das Racist is coming to The Mill this Friday (12/4)…
You may NOT know that Victor Vasquez of Das Racist is also in a band called Boy Crisis, or that Boy Crisis will be opening.
A mix of electronica and grunge and with swells from the ultra low-key to the maddeningly danceable, each Boy Crisis song brings something completely different to the table. At times, their haunting vocals and mellow synths remind me of a mesh of Brand New and Hot Chip. At others, they pump it up and their beats have the potential to hustle a crowd into an all-out frenzy. All aside, though, they’ve got something different going on than other Indie-Electronic acts that have exploded nowadays - their sound is very vintage-pop-esque, more along the lines of Prince or Bowie than Passion Pit or Simian Mobile Disco (or Lady Gaga for that matter).
So once again, swing by. Doors will open at 11. Send an e-mail to milltix@gmail.com with your name, cell#, and how many you’d like for tickets ($5 each).
