Ratatat

Is it rock? Electronic? Hip-hop? Ratatat layers simple but precise guitar riffs over old skool drum machine beats and synths. On their self-titled album, they tweak it a bit one way and it's rockin', another and it's ambient. On their bootleg-style mix tape they kick up the bass and back a bunch of rappers, from Missy to Ghostface. I picked this album up at their show for a five spot, but as far as I can tell they've sold out of it. It probably wasn't licensed in the first place, so don't bother looking for it at the store.
