Celebration is a three-person band, two guys and a girl, from Baltimore. Modern Tribe is their second full-length, released in October. The trio, including a husband and wife, produces ecstatic, hard-driving noise-chimera; their music could be a soundtrack to a confusing, magical, colorful dream. The female vocalist alternately sings, wails and trills over syncopated rhythms and layers of instruments including guitar, drums and percussion, organ, Wurlitzer and Moog.
Watch a video for “Evergreen,” the first song on Modern Tribe, below, and then check out their MySpace where you can listen to eight of the eleven songs on their album. “Heartbreak” is the most accessible, and a good place to start. (Or just start at the beginning, since the new MySpace player no longer stops at the end of a song.) Their official site is here.
