what high school kids are up to these days

You know that LCD Soundsystem song "Losing My Edge," when aging hipster James Murphy remarks on kids who are full of "nostalgia for the unremembered 80s?" If you imagined a band entirely composed of those sorts of kids, you might have "Natalie Portman's Shaved Head," an unfortunately-named and yet shockingly entertaining band out of Seattle.

The first time I heard this song, I honestly believed it was bad 80s coked-up-era Bowie, all the way through to the final verse. (I picked the one with no actual "video" because I think video on this is superfluous.)

"Losing My Edge" is my boss's favorite song.

My blade couldn't cut butter.

Drone-related, or song-related? Or a mixture?

That was thoroughly entertaining (and is now stuck in my head).

Yeah, all their songs are like that. Magical little earworms
