They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Omaha based electro-pop three-piece, Icky Blossoms, have paid homage to Siouxsie and the Banshees’ post-punk classic, “Arabian Knights.” Icky Blossoms’ rework is powered by subterranean synth lines, a propulsive electro-industrial rhythm, and the same classic guitar riff that you know oh so well.
Since the 2012 release of their self-titled full-length, the trio has been hard at work on Cowboy Knights, their upcoming seven-inch split with Black Lips. Check the stream below and be sure to pick up Cowboy Knights from Saddle Creek on 4/20.
