NYC Year End Poll – Indie Pop Submission: Cultfever Ties with Dalton for 1st Place

Welcome to the always troublesome world of Cultfever. The Brooklyn-based duo made up from equal parts haunting vocals, (provided by singer/howler Tamara Jafar) and the warped groove sculptures of Joe Durniak. Though I’m not entirely sure what the endgame is, this is a group that clearly seems to be on a mission. From iPhone videos (‘knewyouwell’) to their rampaging self-titled debut, the band attacks with an emotional blast in tracks like my favorite ‘Collector.’ They won’t be gentle with you, but that’s probably not what you wanted from a band anyway. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
