Treats by Sleigh Bells
Treats is an album by Sleigh Bells, released in 2010. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 16 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Tell 'Em”, on 9 lists with a best position of #12.
Treats, the debut from Brooklyn noise-pop duo Sleigh Bells, hit on May 24, 2010, through Mom + Pop and M.I.A.'s N.E.E.T. Recordings, and it plays like someone left every meter in the studio pinned in the red. Derek Miller, the guitarist who also produced, slams punk and metal riffs into hip-hop and electro beats, and Alexis Krauss floats sugary pop hooks straight through the distortion.
"Tell 'Em" came out first, in April, a blast of blown-out guitar and pounding beats, while "Rill Rill" eased off into a sweet, sunny groove built on a Funkadelic sample and became the duo's most popular song. Critics fell hard for the whole thing, and Slant, Paste and Entertainment Weekly all ranked it among the year's 10 best albums.
