“Plastic Fantastic” is the first single from
the debut self-titled album by TKTTSM.
+++
Brooklyn-based psychedelic rock duo TKTTSM (an acronym for The Kiss Tried To Smack Me that is
pronounced “tick-uh-tism”) is set to release its debut self-titled album on
October 16th. “Plastic Fantastic,” the first single from the album is streaming
and available for download now.
The album is already making waves in the radio world. Venerable
Fort Collins, Colorado station KCSU anointed
the band “cute and disgusting,” a description of TKTTSM’s sound that the duo comprised of Johanna Stahley and Owen O’Mahony
embraced.
Chicago’s tastemaking station WXRT also recently posted
the song for download, noting a sound “that mixes experimental
instrumentals with pop vocals,” and the windy city’s Chicagoist
website weighed in with its own take on the track, stating that Stahley’s vocals “cut through the walls
of sound and hit you in the face like a knife that's so cold it burns…”
TKTTSM’s does indeed balance the weight of O’Mahony’s instrumentation with Stahley’s skewed pop vocals for a perfect representation of this
band’s love of exploration, animals, exercise, and freedom, and their dislike
of cops, politicians, financial institutions and any other power hungry
villains.
TKTTSM’s debut self-titled album is scheduled for release next Tuesday,
October 16th. The album’s first single “Plastic Fantastic” is streaming now.
TKTTSM is available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom at Fanatic to talk to the band or for more
