“Even though our music is bombastic and tough and abrasive, this record is super positive,” Sleigh Bells singer Alexis Krauss recently told Rolling Stone. “I can’t tell you how excited I am to get onstage and blast these songs, like ‘Bitter Rivals’ or ‘Tiger Kit’ or ‘Young Legends,’ that just feel so conducive to that celebratory experience that our live shows are.”
