And the song is....Young Blood, by New Zealand indie rock band The Naked and Famous. This song was just released out in May, 2010, and the song charted at #1 on the New Zealand singles chart, making them the first Kiwi band to produce a #1 hit in at least 3 years in their own country (although I would have thought that Ladyhawke had produced a #1 more recently, but maybe not). The Naked and Famous are a 5-piece band consisting of members David Beadle, Thom Powers, Aaron Short, Jesse Wood, and Alisa Xayalith. I would compare the sound of this song to MGMT for sure, but there full release and debut album is set to come out next month (August 2010). Enjoy the song, and note that it is available as a free download at this link, along with a few other new songs.
