Artist Overview
Along with the Rapture, !!! (pronounced chk chk chk) were leaders of the new-millennial dance punk craze that swept the indie underground. While other bands looked to U.K. post-punk acts of the late '70s, !!! possessed a genuine love for the funky groove. Replete with a full horn section and necessarily tight rhythm section, the California-via-Brooklyn act presented the slinky pulse of the jam band set to an audience that would normally react in horror to such a concept. The band's self-titled debut contained remnants of the members hardcore punk background; however, subsequent albums saw !!! pulling from hip-hop, house music, and polyrhythmic afro-funk to expand its sound. The band's third full-length, MYTH TAKES, was released in early 2007.
