For a while now Cansei De Ser Sexy (Tired of Being Sexy) have been in the spotlight of music tastemakers such as FBI fm’s Fat Planet and fluokids and garnered remixes from the likes of Diplo, Spank Rock and DJ Gorky. With their almost eponymous debut released just last week it seems as though they are a band about to explode with more colour and noise than a party popper fired into your face.
Hailing from São Paulo, Brazil, CSS is made up of five girls who mud-wrestle with the pros and cons of pop-culture and who, despite their geographical location, describe the Internet as their home. CSS are also Sub Pop’s first South American signing and a wise choice as the band appears to be a beast better unleashed than tamed. More than just a youth-fuelled gimmick, their sound and identity is intelligent, raw, furious and unfinished and will hopefully make their development both more unpredictable and more exciting.
