Cansei de Ser Sexy (Tired of Being Sexy) hail from Sao Paulo, Brazil and burst onto the scene a couple of years back with a self-titled record which made them the darlings of dance/rock enthusiasts everywhere. And with good reason.
Their follow up effort Donkey proves it was no fluke, as they deliver another set overflowing with the same sexed-up disco energy that made its predecessor such a treat. Opening track Jager Yoga sets the pace perfectly, with pounding drums and a bassline which is sure to fill dance floors all over town with slim-hipped indie hipsters.
There is a wonderful sense of playfulness and humour throughout the record and with a name like theirs and a singer by the name of Lovefoxxx, well it’s just hard not to love these guys. Oh yeah, and they’ve made one of the party albums of the year.
