Neon Indian - “Should Have Taken Acid With You”
I haven’t heard much from the mysterious one-half-Brooklyn-one-half-Austin boy/girl duo who call themselves Neon Indian, but what I have heard I’ve really enjoyed. The band strikes a chord reminiscent of a rough-around-the-edges Cut Copy and somehow manages to make me think of summer camp. An odd association perhaps, but a good one nonetheless. Look for Psychic Chasms, Neon Indian’s first album, in mid-October, and until then, track down whatever you can online (there’s enough out there to keep you occupied).
