Jangly and glamorous, Bottled Ups freaked-up art-pop on their Misra Records debut "Grand Bizarre" is a smoothie of frontman Nikhil Raos key obsessions: Suburban Lawns, italo-disco, Alan Vega, Television (the band), television (the appliance), Andy Warhol, the 80s, Princes plum purple, his old Tascam 8-track, and Factory Records.
Indian-American by way of Oakland and LA, Rao is the dude-whos-seen-it-all meets dude-about-town. A sound designer and audio engineer by trade - professionally schooled in the art of film & video game scoring - Rao is a man informed first by the sort of his journeying ones got to do when faced with the darknesses of addiction and a twisty adolescence in and out of religious cults.
For all of its gleaming guitars and glossy euro-flavored synthwork, Bottled Up is filled with the mental residue one accumulates after telling the void to fuck off. Co-led with Colin Kelly - a disciple of D.C.s avant-analog scene - joined by Michael Mastrangelo and Beth Cannon on dueling guitars, and supplanted by Raos wunderkind brother, Rohit, on acid-jazz-does-punk drums, Bottled Up conjures the sort of psycho-potpourri spirit given to the sort of band able to conjure a vision of things they love and mountains theyve overcome, mutating it all into something eminently danceable.
Market is the NYC-based indie-pop project of Nate Mendelsohn, recording engineer for bands like Frankie Cosmos and Sam Evian. Their first album, "The Consistent Brutal Bullshit Gong," was released on Western Vinyl in April.
