Death Team Release "Fucking Bitches in the Hood" and It Sounds Like All the Best Uffie Songs

The press release says this band think of themselves "as a cross between ABBA and Eminem" but, TBH, they recall the best moments of Euro-pop bangers.

Death Team started off as a ramschackle punk band. The Swedish twosome met after stealing seven litres worth of alcohol from an afterparty, then wrote a song called "I'm So Drunk I Wanna Fight." Presumably they didn't hurt each other too much because they've continued working together for the past year; shifting their sound from harder, darker music, toward the electro=pop and face-down-in-a-gutter-but-dressed-fabulously realm.

Their most recent single, the pleasantly titled "Fucking Bitches in the Hood," is a sugary sweet popsicle that tastes like the sticky underside of a Parisian nightclub. It recalls the best moments of Uffie; touches of Ed Banger; bits of that one listenable Ladyhawke song. Essentially, it's a Euro-pop banger.
