Professor Murder is: MIKE, TONY, JESSE and ANDY

We've had several people recommend Professor Murder for consideration for a BOTW recently and are really glad we took the advice and had a listen. These guys sound pretty sweet. It's slightly dark and dancey electropop in the vain of someone like The Rapture, but with a optimistic sheen covering it. We like that. Makes for good listening during the pretty summer months.

They have a new EP out now and are featured at the Insound pre-siren fest party tomorrow (Thursday) at Supreme Trading with former BOTWer The Big Sleep and Oh No! Oh My!. Here's an mp3. You'll love em:
