TWENTY-THREE/MYTH TAKES/!!!
The curtains part and the lights go dim. A hushed silence looms over the audience as the credits begin to roll. The crowd sweats with anticipation as the mark is made and the band hits its cue, opening with the smoky and bubonic spaghetti western haze that is Myth Takes. Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to the Sweet Life, 50 minutes of thick, dirty, and heavy dancefloor funk from Nic Offer and company, collectively known as !!!. Like their fellow "get on the floor and shake that ass" brethren The Rapture, the boys are back and in full effect this time around, sounding more focused and tighter than a pair of Nic's stage shorts. Just try to resist the bass heavy groove that is Must Be the Moon [the album highlight from its dirty groove right on down to its nursery rhyme like chants and refrains]and the other spasm inducing groove attacks that present themselves throughout the duration of Myth Takes. It's not an easy task. Trust me, I know.
KEY TRACKS: Must Be the Moon/Heart of Hearts/Yadnus
