GREAT new(ish) band. New single is gaining ground and reminds me a bit of STG...

Oh, I like them. Haven't heard of them before, but I'm pretty sure I'm already becoming addicted to "Young Blood." Must look up more, stat!

I really wish they had more than three songs available in the US. I want their CD and EPs right now. It looks like Passive Me, Agressive You is coming to the US in March (http://www.amazon.com/Passive-Aggressive-You-Naked-Famous/dp/B004G8QHKO/ref=reg_hu-rd_add_1_dp_T2). I suppose I can be patient...

woah. LIKE.

And I agree, there's a bit of a Passion Pit element.

I was just thinking that The Naked And Famous remind me of that MGMT song, Kids. That reminds me that I need to look up more MGMT because I like that song.

Yeah, Young Blood does have a tiny bit of similarity to Kids. It also makes me think of Sleepyhead.

But I listened to TNAF for two hours the other night after discovering Young Blood. I think I found a new band to love. xD

Me too. Been listening to them a lot. Of course, that probably get toned down a bit when the STG stuff arrives. Grin

Hm... I have a feeling I'll be listening to them a lot for a while, cause I don't think new STG stuff will arrive right away. haha.

Ah, the album is out and I want it so much! I'm trying to resist the urge to buy it on itunes because I've already pre-ordered the deluxe edition (includes their first two EPs) from amazon. Thing is, the deluxe edition doesn't ship until next Tuesday, March 22. An extra week, plus a week for shipping...I'm so impatient. Maybe youtube will sustain me...

Oh, and I found out that they're playing in Kansas City at the end of April. I think I might go. Smiley

Very nice, thanks for sharing. I like them. I also see the STG connection through their production. Good stuff!

Oh yes. The CDs finally arrived after some weird amazon delay. It is a glorious day!

Gosh I love this band! I discovered this band thanks to Matt Downes (well, I'm sure you all know he's Versant's manager). The Naked & Famous is a good mix of MGMT, Passion Pit & sometimes M83.
