You may had enough of our incessant touting of this group (which first began in January<\/strong><\/a>).\u00a0 But just when we think we’ve had enough of the caffeinated drip of Sylvan Esso<\/strong><\/a> and their addicting song Coffee<\/strong><\/em>, another pot gets stirred and the song’s sounds spill out of our speakers and seize all our senses and synapses.\u00a0 And it shakes us wide awake with its roiling rhythms.\u00a0 Such was the case (yet again) today when we caught the duo’s performance below of the song for Soundcheck<\/strong>.\u00a0 While much of the song’s performance here tracks the recorded version, we see\/hear the live possibilities and can imagine an enraptured crowd going entirely-espresso, the band responding in kind, and musical magic ensuing.\u00a0 Were we to be in Paris, France<\/strong> on, oh say, May 19th<\/strong>, we wouldn’t miss ’em at the Cafe De La Danse <\/strong><\/a>when they open for tUnE-yArDs\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>(or at any date of that tour, including in Cali in the first week of June, which you can check out HERE<\/strong><\/a>)<\/span>.\u00a0 In the meantime, check out the performance below and go to Soundcheck<\/strong> HERE<\/strong> <\/a>to listen to the full interview and additional songs Wolf<\/strong><\/em> and Dreamy Bruises<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

And make sure you go over to NPR<\/strong> HERE<\/strong><\/a> and stream the entirety of their scintillating debut album until it’s release on May 13th.\u00a0 It’s one of our favorites of 2014, and every song will get under your skin and feet, and leave you jibbing in joy.\u00a0 Go pre-order it HERE<\/strong><\/a> or HERE<\/strong><\/a> (on Partisan Records<\/strong>)<\/p>\n
