Best New song!!! (Chk Chk Chk) — Dancing Is the Best Revenge
Posted by LetsLoop on May 3, 2017, 3:16 pm Dancing Is The Best Revenge is the 2nd single from Californian dance-punk band @!!! (Chk Chk Chk)'s upcoming 7th album, Shake The Shudder, which is out May 19th and follows up 2015's As If. It will be joined on the new album by the amazing lead single, The One 2.Here's what frontman Nic Offer had to say about the new single and video:
"When we recorded Dancing Is The Best Revenge I pitched up my voice, becoming Nicole Fayu in the studio - much like Prince became Camille and Morrissey became Ann Coates. the groove felt like a strut or walk and i imagined it akin to drag or ballroom culture.
After The One 2 video featured such strong dance performances, and was filmed in the historic LA venue Jalisco, we decided to give the song to some girls who could really walk the walk and perform the song as in the spirit of reinvention. We traded some outfits and makeup tips and they helped me become IRL Nicole Fayu. Dancing with them was a blast, and it was great to finally see the song walked. I have to admit, I'm not used to being out performed in a video.
These ladies ignore a world that tells them who they should be - they take the stage, walking as whoever they want to be, and that’s their best revenge. Maybe you’ll never put on heels, maybe you'll never walk onstage, maybe you’ll never be anyone else, but maybe this song/vid/story inspires you to try something you haven't before."
Shake The Shudder was produced by Patrick Ford and features a number of guest vocalists including Lea Lea, Meah Pace, Nicole Fayu, Cameron Mesirow, and Molly Schnick.
