One of our new favorite bands made history (maybe just for us obsessive bloggers for now, but just you wait). It went down at The Smell in LA when Health collaborated with Aa, one of our old-but-ongoing favorite bands, about two months ago. We learned how to visit YouTube recently, so we can show it to you here!
Together, they made something that the camera mics interpreted as a hostile attack on their structural integrity, (something the performer's ear canals probably interpreted similarly). That being said, you can basically see nirvana (by that we mean enlightenment) sprouting out of the tops of their heads as they slam away at their respective noise-makers.
Health is playing about fifty shows this fall through much of North America, touring with Crime Novels and Yip Yip, two electronic acts that tie Health into that whole “post-electronic” tribal thing by association.
