What their label says...

caUSE co-MOTION! has spent three years releasing a series of increasingly rad singles on Whats Your Rupture?, Cape Shok, Cant Cope, and finally Slumberland. Their sound is a blazing chaos of jangle, clatter, and thumpbusted strings and broken hearts. Hummable tunes to scratch that Television Personalities / Pastels / Comet Gain itch, with more than a dash of 14 Iced Bears and Desperate Bicycles in there, too. The band has built up a rabid following playing way too many shows to count during the last six years, with bands like Love Is All, Vivian Girls, Tyvek, Japanther, The Apples In Stereo, Crystal Stilts, and many others. Theyve been championed in Brooklyn Vegan, Dusted, Pitchfork, and pretty much every place where savvy music fans trade notes about the newest singles. Using reverb as a weapon, caUSE co-MOTION! has honed their hyperactive sound into a formidable DIY pop lexicon. Dig their new language. Its Time! neatly summarizes the history of caUSE co-MOTION! so fara blast of pure pop energy and DIY sincerity for these all-tooknowing and ironic times. The fourteen songs race by in barely over twenty minutes, the compressed rush of melody, tunes, and crash-bang energy perfectly mirroring the hormonal frenzy of adolescence and young adulthood. The eagerness to communicate, if only for two minutes at a time. Classics like This Time Next Yearand Take a Lookhave become mix-tape staples, and are joined by more recent missives like Say What You Feeland Cry For Attentionin the canon of crash-pop. One cannot listen to tunes like these and not get up and dance, clap, and sing along. Go ahead, nobody is watching. We wont tell.
