Handsome Furs: "What About Us"


Apparently Wolf Parade wasn't synth-y enough to take advantage of the current retro-new wave craze, so Dan Boeckner pulled the plug on that band and turned his focus to Handsome Furs instead... you know, the whole "indefinite hiatus" thing. OK, that was crass and cynical; the truth is Boeckner has realized the one thing that all these "disco punk" groups can't fathom, and that is that synthesizers should always been accompanied by gratuitous nudity. If nothing else, just for symmetry.
