“Grouplove are an L.A. mutilationwave band that SPIN loves so much that we gave them poison oak. Their “Tongue Tied,” off their recent album Never Trust a Happy Song was just given the remix treatment from omnipresent Swedish electro-poppers Little Dragon. The jubilant, rollicking track is given a harsh vibe thanks to LD’s neck-snapping snares and “Stay Fly”-style crossfader stut-tut-tuttering. They’re going on tour soon, so you can start requesting this one now.”
Check out their article and Little Dragon remix on SPIN
