DISCO 2



HEALTH is a noise-rock band from LA consisting of BJ Miller, Jake Duzsik, John Famiglietti, and Jupiter Keyes. The band has steadily been releasing albums since 2007 with their record label, Lovepump United. Recently the band said they will be releasing a their fourth album, a remix album titled HEALTH//DISCO2, this summer (2010). The album, HEALTH//DISCO2 features remixes of songs off of their 2009 album, GET COLOR, by artists like Crystal Castles, CFCF, Small Black , and Pictureplane; the new remix album also features an all new, non-remixed HEALTH song, "USA Boys".

"USA Boys" is a very interesting song to me, I really like it, it's just an unexpected direction for HEALTH to be going in, but I think the song shows a lot of growth and maturity within the band's writing.

HEALTH//DISCO2 is truly an amazing album, one that I think even people who don't really like the harshness that HEALTH can sometimes bring to the table will enjoy. That being said it was really hard for me to pick my favorite songs off this album, but the decision had to be made, you can download the full album by clicking on the album art above.

HEALTH-In Heat (Javelin remix)
