Carpark Records, home of venerable Wham City dance participants like Dan Deacon and Adventure, has recently signed yet another experimental duo from, you guessed it, B-more. Known as EAR PWR, the man-and-woman power team have just moved to Baltimore from their North Carolina home, where they will surely fit in, with their frenetic energy and semi-ironic subject matter.
The duo will be releasing their Carpark debut, Super Animal Brothers III, on May 19. In a press release, the record is described as blending together "bits of Italo Disco, Baltimore Club, and twee indie pop to create a nuclear party grenade that is sure to blow your mind." There are sure to be some fantastic synth sounds too, as key-man Devin Booze holds a certificate from a Bob Moog-founded music technology program.
Surrounding the album's release, EAR PWR will be doing some North American touring, including stops at SXSW and a Canadian date in Toronto on May 29. More PWR to the people!
