We Are On Fire - CocoRosie

The Casady sisters are back with a new 7"!  And fortunate for the seven billion or so people on Earth, they're even better than they were before.  Bianca and Sierra know a thing or two about experimental indie pop music, as well as keeping things fresh as they continue to release music.  Case in point: "We Are On Fire," which is five minutes of pure awesomeness set in a far off, magical land.  Dare I say, their experimenting has paid off.

I used to have eyes the color of sky, now I can see in the middle of the night.

"We Are On Fire" is classic CocoRosie with a new twist.  While I've always been a fan of their slowed down, haunting songs, but this is just an ounce upbeat without being too upbeat.  You've got the strange sounds that echo through the verses, while the chorus picks up and is just catchy enough to get stuck in your head.  But you're not going to complain.  Why would you?  I'm excited to hear the rest of their new material; if it's anything like "We Are On Fire," we're all in for a good time.
