SUMMARY:The Wants + Guests
DESCRIPTION:With the minimal instrumentation of post-punk as their framewor
 k\, The Wants inject the hypnotic pulse of Detroit techno into the practic
 e of pop songwriting. Led by Madison Velding-VanDam’s elusive duality of
  personas\, which oscillate between earnestly romantic and unsettlingly de
 adpan\, The Wants naturally forge a dark alley off the beaten path into da
 nceable dissonance. Velding-VanDam’s vulnerable lyrics sometimes foray i
 nto the sardonically biting\, reflecting the complex cycle of self-reflect
 ion of the current generation\, while drawing from sources like the satire
 -of-power in Jenny Holzer’s “Inflammatory Essays\,” and the midweste
 rn heart of The National’s frontman Matt Berninger. Anthony “Shake” 
 Shakir’s “Frictionalism (1994-2009)” and John Beltran’s “Ten Day
 s of Blue” drew Velding-VanDam into the lush soundscapes and entrancing 
 mood of electronic music.\n\nPlus support.\n\nhttps://soundcloud.com/thewa
