Drunk Love

A very interesting band was just brought to my attention, and I had to immediately post about it -- partly because there's been a near-drought of interesting bands around here lately, and partly because I haven't posted in a freaking dog's-age. (More on that in subsequent posts.)

The band -- actually a duo -- is Drunk With Joy. Consisting of Mila Oshin and Kris Jager, Drunk With Joy was formed in London, UK in 2002. Their first material was released in 2004, and now their first full album, Sound Living, is about to drop.

Consider me instantly hooked. With smooth assurance, DWJ manage to pull-off that Goth/Electro sound that can so easily confound lesser artists. Ms Oshin's vocals are strong, sincere, and convincing. The arrangements range from orchestral to industrial, and so far I haven't heard a false note.

The Drunk With Joy homepage linked above has some audio samples, and more can be heard at their Myspace page. The press seems to have taken to Drunk With Joy, and now here's hoping that you, the public, follow suit.
