The Orkids

This band has changed my life recently.  I still remember the first time I ever heard of them.  I was watching their music video of "What is it with me?", which by the way is an amazing song, go listen to it, and I immediatly fell in love witht his band.  Whenever I hear their music, I am often times nastalgic about the past, and optimistic about the future.  It's a very bizarre thing how this band makes me feel, but go listen to them yourself and see how they effect you. 
This band combines sexy techno, old school seductive lyrics, enticing guitar and never ending catchy beats.  There is also some strange combination of punk and rock, and something else I simply can't describe it.  All I know is, this band is awesome. 
Songs you HAVE TO LISTEN TO: "What is it with me"  "Told you so"  "Paper Dolls"  "Impetus".  O yes.  These songs should jumpstart your interest to a point of opsession like I had with them.
I met their lead singer, Sandra Gallardo at the 40 watt about a week ago, and she is simply pleasant and hillarius.  Her new haircut was absoultely amazing, and she rocks it so well.  I didn't have the chance to meet any other members of the band, but I have heard nothing but great things about them, and if they are any thing like Sandra, I'm sure that being around this band at all would be a great opportunity to make some epic friends.
Definitely check out their facebook, and I'm sure they have a myspace(If that's still around), and support them all you can.  Now, time to go study for my finals...later
