Whilst M.I.A. is currently busy stirring various journos and focusing on her reputation rather than her music, the latest group to be signed to her N.E.E.T. recording label Sleigh Bells are busy packing a punch in all the right places. With their slamming guitars, thumping bass and screeching vocals, their sound is one that you definitely can't ignore. However, the pounding is so intoxicating that after you hear one song you're left craving more and luckily their new album 'Treats' is brimming with track after track of the dance punk sound that makes them so distinctive. Despite only releasing their first single in April, this Brooklyn duo are already causing such a stir that they played this year's esteemed Coachella Festival. Check out their stormer of a track, 'Crown On The Ground' below to experience this prodigious blitz on the senses yourself. If this band isn't one to watch, then I don't know who is.
