So Check It, I have been tellin' you about that CMJ show last week with Dan Deacon, Deerhunter, No Age, and White Williams. Well I had never seen White Williams before, but when they took the stage I was pleasantly surprised by there uncontrived underground 80's pop sound. They would have fit in well with the 80's Blitz Kids scene at the Blitz club in England(see: Scritti Politti, Orange Juice, Spandau Ballet, etc..) Running through there set with ease, I was impressed by the sound and instantly in love with a song called "New Violence." The song will appear on their new album, on Tiger Beat 6, "Smoke." Which is due out Oct. 30th(until then you can hear "New Violence" on their myspace page.) I was also diggin' the fact that they had the dumpy dude who was rockin' all purple outfits this summer at McCarren pool, on stage controlling the visuals for them. White Williams has toured with Girl Talk, Drop the Lime, and is currently on tour with Battles. They will be at Webster Hall with Battles on Nov. 13th. check em'. www.myspace.com/whitewilliams LUVIT!
