Fresh Squeezed: Casiokids
Casiokids are not new to independent music, but this June they will make they US debut with their album Topp stemning på lokal bar (loosely translated to "Great vibe at local bar"). Polyvinyl is now the US label for this Bergen (Norway)quintet.
Casiokids has previously released music in Europe via Moshi Moshi, both as part of the label's renowned "Singles Club" and as a series of double A-sided 7"s. Eight tracks of the band's expansive catalog have been hand selected for their debut US release with Polyvinyl, and are accompanied by a bonus disc of new material (including six remixes and two covers).
There is no doubt that this is a party band, and their live shows are proof of that. While they are playing their brand of disco-pop they typically incorporate a blend of shadow puppets, video projections and animal costumes. So, as the weather warms try a band that is all about fun, energy, and warmth.
