CANSEI DER SEXY next. That's CSS to the less spoddy of you. They are the slinky electro rock collective from Brasil who manage to combine the raunchiness of early Peaches with a kind of metronomic, spaced rock nous that really stands out in this battle scarred musical climate. They look great, make some of the funkiest sounds to be heard on Sub Pop for years & 'Alala' is a staggering triumph of hip swaying, sultry female vocals over a gyrating backdrop of dirty synth & machine gun new wave drumming. One to get a party well & truly started. Nearly single of the week, oh nearly. CDs/ltd 7"/12" with mixes by folk such as Princess Superstar
