My first reaction to things is generally to not like them. People, places, things, no proper noun is safe from my negative first impressions. LCD Soundsystem fell victim to my perpetual inner sneer, but unlike the case of TV on the Radio and every other thing I enjoy in this world, I never looked back to correct my mistake. Until now. I'm slowly warming to their frenetic beats and monotone, though I must admit it's an uphill battle as my thesis headache constantly coaxes my fingers towards the pause button. "Pow Pow" hasn't received the same media love and kisses as "I Can Change," but it's still a contender for my favorite track on their newest album - perhaps because it reminds me of a soundtrack to a bad workout video in a confusing yet good way.
