Comment
Jacksonville, FL, electro-pop duo, Electric President, have done it yet again. By it, we mean created a really great album full of all the elements that make us love Ben Cooper and Alex Kane: clever drum programming, lush harmonies and wave after wave of distorted guitar, all wrapped around simple pop sensibilities. Who else could take a creaking floor and turn it to the rhythm of the sea?
The Violent Blue, as one could gather, is an ode to the ocean, the great compass that guides so many coastal residents and the heartbeat of those who live close enough to hear the crashing of the tide. Each song is meticulously crafted to reflect the power of the sea and the strong emotions elicited by it's ebb and pull. 
Although, it won't be released for another month you can preview all of the tracks from The Violent Blue on Last.fm. You can also download "Mr. Gone" from Tsururadio's aptly titled Songs from Impending Leaks Blog.
Electric President will be making it out to a few Showcases this year at Austin's famous South By Southwest Music Conference along with a slew of other Fake Four artists. Also Ben Cooper, aka Radical Face, will be planning a tour of non-traditional venues (such as farms or graveyards) this Spring/Summer, so keep an eye out for dates.
The Violent Blue will be available for pre-order at our friends at Circle Into Square in the coming weeks with great package deals with exclusive Electric President t-shirts and posters!
