What the hell? With a name like this, you’d expect dance-y electropop, and that’s exactly what you’ll find on Seattle’s Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head’s debut LP, “Glistening Pleasure.†Song after song, the album is high-energy without being high-fructose: It’s dance music for adults, and there’s no good reason not to like this record. “Me + Yr Daughter†is all about dating a girl’s parents, and it’s funny and fun. You can check it out as one of the two mp3s below. They’re touring with CSS, and one listen makes it easy to see why.
