The Daily Choice: Bronze - The Rouge Became

I’d heard rumors of a Bronze side-project show where half-naked men with tridents poked at another half-naked man caged between them. Without hearing Bronze’s music I assumed they’d be pretty strange. And sure, strangeness hovers on the edge of “The Rouge Became” but not the strangeness of unlistenable noise or dark basements that smell like crime and urine. This is the good natured weird of The Talking Heads and Silver Apples. The electronic bass bubbling in the background, a hard chop of synth, and the off-key lilt of the distorted wash of sound makes “The Rouge Became” just shy of an 80s dance hit.
Bronze just signed to RVNG Intl. and released their album, ahem, Copper earlier this month.
