Hercules and Love Affair, summer 2008's greatest disco hope

Maybe. I don't want to make a totally unqualified statement, considering that I have only heard one track by Hercules and Love Affair. But let me tell you, if you're looking for summer disco jams, this might be the best bet until the new Annie album comes out. See if I'm right or if I'm wrong, by listening to this. The Antony track is kickin'.

Dude is goin' on a non-stop excess-filled (well, it should be, it's disco, right?) tour of Europe, the UK, and a liiiitle bit of America this summer, and it's such a long list that I don't really feel like I have to write any more less-than-spectacular commentary about this band/their tour. Lost in music!!!
