Nova Social

New York metropolitan area pop group Nova Social expands their sonic palette with their new self-titled EP, mating their ambitious pop songwriting with electronic and dance music influences. The new EP includes six rhythmically-and-lyrically-driven songs in the vein of perfect '80s new wave and recent DFA releases. Violins and violas sizzle with frenetic '70s disco and orchestral pop-inflected arrangements, while Nile Rodgers-meets-Robert Fripp guitar playing grooves and unsettles. Slickness is not at the expense of substance.
