the first time i was a witness to the wrath of sleigh bells, was when they opened for lcd soundsystem at the hollywood bowl in october. with just two people, a guitar and a pair of giant speakers on stage, they unleashed a spell of intense, balls-to-the-walls energy that was so hard to watch without become transfixed.
so it's great that their chill new single "rill rill" is equally magical, flipping the script to actually soundtrack the comedown at the end of a night, rather than sound like the rager itself.
