The Kitsuné-sponsored English threesome put out the highly-praised, electronic single, “The Greeks.” And with that, our attention was grabbed. Of course, their harmless rendition of a punk clan caused a double take as well–and an historical comparison that will go nameless for the sake of decency.
It just so happens these guys barely show face at all. IS TROPICAL goes shirt-faced, hair over face, or hide behind anything at all. It may be a phantom pact to keep it all about the music, following suit after the masked Daft Punk and The Gorillaz, who anonymously played behind a curtain in their beginning years. Either way, we just want to see them release more music. That’s all that matters.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
Listen to “Land of the Nod” here
The intro of IS TROPICAL‘s “Land of the Nod” puts the primitive back in production with simulated sticks banging on cans blended in with cold and synth-laden warehouse sounds. The quickness with which it switches gears into a warm, head-bopper is as quick as you’ll fall in love.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
