Heavy Rotation: MNDR’s “#1 in Heaven”

297

MNDR hasn’t been in the spotlight much since the release of their E.P.E. EP in 2010, but that’s all about to change. I didn’t think I could like anything as much as last year’s “Cut Me Out” (which I still blast in my headphones at least once a week), but new single “#1 in Heaven” is quickly climbing to the top of my most played list. It’s an infectious electropop jam anchored by a head-bopping dance beat and Amanda Warner’s sultry vocals. The video’s great, too, thanks to trippy visuals and Warner’s incredible lipstick choices (seriously, tell me where to buy it). MNDR’s first full-length is due out this summer, and today the band announced that they’ll be touring this spring with fellow dance poppers the Ting Tings. Do like Amanda says and put your hands above your heads right now, America, because MNDR is coming to make you dance.
