The 2011 album from Seattle's fun-loving quintet Brite Futures (f/k/a Natalie Portman's Shaved Head), is a youthful swaggering mix of synth-happy pop, rock, funk, disco, and New Wave that the band likes to describe as "punk rock Abba disco Osmonds with chainsaws." It challenges the notion that irresistible pop can only be peddled by solo artists propped up by big-name songwriters and major labels. It's game on for these pop, indie-minded twenty-somethings when the band releases their album mixed by Eliot James (Two Door Cinema Club, Kaiser Chiefs).
