I Wasn’t Made For Fighting by Woodhands

I keep hearing more and more about this band Woodhands. The electronic project of Dan Werb (vocals, synths, drum machines) and Paul Banwatt (drums, vocals) is turning into a force to be reckoned with in ’08. Think a psychedelic dance party that’s dirty and sweaty, full of distorted synth lines and infectious beats.

Check out I Wasn’t Made For Fighting (is that vocoder line ‘One More Time’ a shout out to Daft Punk?)
