I first heard Sleigh Bells "Ring Ring" on the XM/Sirius station "XMU" in the context of the surprising popularity of Sleigh Bells at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, TX. At first, I was skeptical, the sound was so thin, this lady was singing about braces and having a heart but I left it on, because, something about it was catchy. Now, like a lot of other indie music, three or four listens later and I am hooked on the easy mellow uber catchy beat and breathy melodic lyrics that seem to be about nothing in particular except the mercuric experience of being a sixteen year old.
What do you think?
