Django Django are a kind of psychedelic outfit from those UK parts (Scotland). Their album hasn't dropped here in the West yet, but I expect they will make a splash considering there hasn't been a consistently good psych-rock group to clamor for in the wake of MGMT and more recently, Foster the People.
There are elements of surf-rock, dance beats, and a seemingly uptempo spirit tinged by unease, blanketed with a psychedelic glaze. The singer sounds as though Simon & Garfunkel had been trained by Ziggy Stardust in space and jammed with the Talking Heads. In other words, pretty unique. The self-titled album is like a mashing of Meddle and Smile and is certainly worth listening outside the scope of the trippy visuals.
