STR8 EXCLUSIVE: COOL KIDS LISTENING PARTY

Tweet

Words by Tannis Spencer of Product of the Nineties

Thursday night in the backroom of SoHo’s Sweet & Vicious the Cool Kids treated fans, friends and general groupies to their official album listening party for their new album, When Fish Ride Bicycles. The album is set to release on Tuesday, July 12th worldwide via iTunes. Last night we were able to get a sneak peek of the entire album and meet a few other cool kids in their own right.

If you are a Cool Kid fan you’ll be pleased to know this new project shows a serious progression from their older stuff. While the Cool Kids will always be known for the numbing bass that can be heard in almost every song, they have also grown lyrically as a group. They’re taking more risks as artists and stepping away from what people are likely to expect from them. Presumably a calculated a risk, but likely a good one.

From the sounds of it they have some definite bangers featured on the album just in time for the remainder of the summer. The duo have always been good at creating music easy to ride to and didn’t drift too far away from the formula for this project. Don’t fix it if it ain’t broke right?

When Mikey Rocks and Chuck Inglish weren’t busy being cool kids throughout the night, they were seen mingling with attendees and talking to the human sized fish that was seen floating throughout the party. A few special guess also dropped by for the evening including Asher Roth, Amanda Diva and Tennille.
