Their new album is the sound of the duo letting go of hang-ups and inhibitions and allowing themselves to embrace the sort of loud, colourful, genre-melting music only they could make. After pushing themselves to sound less obviously “Sleigh Bells” on their 2017 EP Kid Kruschev, Derek Miller found he’d started to reject a lot of his best creative impulses. On Texis, the duo decided to simply push the first domino and see what would happen, chasing down whatever excitement and inspiration followed; the resulting album is pure fireworks, full of the best songs Sleigh Bells have ever written and recorded.
