tiffany of rainbow arabia The mighty Gang Gang Dance comes to TX tonight (and tomorrow ), with L.A.'s Rainbow Arabia in tow. You already know how we feel about the unreal new Gang Gang LP, but this Rainbow Arabia stuff sounds like it'll be an ideal complement to what should be a pretty intense dance party. Here are a couple new tracks from the group's tour-only...

Brooklyn's Gang Gang Dance isn't beholden to any particular style or scene; this foursome brews its own inimitable sonic pilsner. And into its (world) musical crock-pot goes Middle Eastern themes, acid techno, cracked synth-pad and guitar-struck runoff, and frontwoman Liz Bougatsos' exotic yelp.

After coaxing Gang Gang Dance into opining on their favourite hairstyles of music past and present we thought we’d run with this flimsy excuse for journalism and invite more bands to partake. First to bite were French based Dutch trio Le Le, whose track Breakfast is rightfully causing a ripple of excitement at the moment, count [...]

Last week Marnie Stern announced that she'd setup a kissing both (with her as the kissed) at her two weekend shows with Gang Gang Dance in San Francisco and Los Angeles. (That's what she was in training for , see?) The cost: for a peck on the cheek, for a kiss on the lips, and if you wanted to go French.
