Gang Gang Dance are a four part boundary pushing collective from New York. Their name goes a long way towards describing their deep, tribal sound, which is at the same time upbeat and urban. In 2004, vocalist Nathan Maddox was killed when he was struck by lightning on the roof of a building in Chinatown, Manhattan. Despite this sudden change in line-up, the band have maintained a steady output. On Eye Contact, their first album since 2008’s ‘Saint Dymphna’, they present a collection of fun and accessible tunes whilst showing no sign of abandoning their worldly-collage sensibility.
