Saint Motel - VoyeurSaint Motel - Voyeur

Stalking urban jungles armed with crocodile smiles and barracuda moves, L.A.‘s regal dream-pop robbers and disdainful disco dilettantes rock cosmopolitan monarchies dissecting modern squalor into sleek lines, greased rhymes and tweaked heartache. Casting scandalous dancing debutantes into Afro-pop chops, royal brass blasts and frenzied indie angst, “Voyeur,” peers into restless medicines and unique critiques of nightclub gazelles, flippant sycophants and kick-start martyrs; doling out and riffing through champagne-wrangled fandangos and Smith-derived trials tucked in suave bravado and machine-gun seductions. Saint Motel’s tropical-rock concoctions atop rallying stallions churn gallant talent, wry surprises and self-pleasing allegiance into cool steel-cased gazes and audacious latent impatience stylishly applied and classically arranged for glistening listening. Touring with L.A. neighbors Races, catch them before they explode July 19th at UW-Madison’s Terrace.
