Think Pink Radio

It’s been a long time since Ssion‘s latest full length, Fool’s Gold came out, but you wouldn’t know it from their set last week opening for Fischerspooner. A stage reminiscent of their recent music videos, Cody Critcheloe full of charisma and working that dirty-ass fu man chu, band as hot as their own leather collars, not to mention the powerful Woman. I mean, the story behind the music really should have VH1 knocking on their door, too complicated for this post. But when it all boils down to an indie-queer scene that is looking for a band that speaks to them, knows the history, keeps the funk (read: B.O.) and has the songs to back it up, there is no one doing it better than Ssion right now. No one. This Thursday at Berlin is where it’s at, another win for Stardust.
