Who Made Who

Source: morecowbell.net

No this post is not about the AC/DC record or Maximum Overdrive, it’s about a fantastic Danish dance/disco punk trio of the same name.

Who Made Who
’s self-titled debut full length (out next Tuesday in the US i believe) will be very welcome to fans of LCD Soundsystem, !!!, Out Hud, just to name a few. Personally i enjoy this album overall more than the LCD full length even.

I thought i’d offer up a few of my favorite tracks on the album:

Rose (LOTS of Cowbell on this one, Wood Block & Triangle too ;))
Out The Door
Hello, Empty Room

Bonus: judging from this live recording they are pretty fantastic live too:
