#93: “Make It Known” by Foxygen

Foxygen’s Debut Album
Best. Band Name. Ever! From their debut album Take the Kids Off Broadway, this Los Angeles duo have taken their parents’ (grandparents’?) record collections and run them through a Bass-o-Matic to create a five-minute indie-rock opera, and endless hours of Name That Influence fun. If you like the Stones, The Velvet Underground, The Doors, or anything – literally: anything – else, you’ll probably like at least 10 or 12 seconds of this song. (Although, truth be told, with a name like that, I expected them to sound a little more like Sweet.)
