the glove compartment is inaccurately named

playing for the heart and the soul
if one were to be so inclined to combine crystal castles and florence + the machine, the result might sound just a bit like austra. this Toronto-based (!!!) trio has been gathering a little attention lately, first with a NOW magazine cover locally and more recently a feature up on iTunes, and deservedly so - their brand of goth-tinged electronica is instantly memorable. the mix of vocals and instrumentals strikes a new balance on every track of their debut Feel It Break. Lead singer katie stelmanis' operatic voice will hit a nerve you probably didn't even know was there, and if the above photo is any indication, it would seem she's kind of a secret hottie. check out the lead single Lose It and slightly heavier dance-y Beat and the Pulse below.
