So Gay For: Sleigh Bells/Alexis Krauss
In a new segment on The Revolution Will Be, "So Gay For" will exhibit girl crushes and things I think are really neat. To qualify as a girl crush, a lady must be a ballin' badass babe. And things I think are really neat must be just that.
To start us off we have my favorite band du jour...but for, like, a couple months...Sleigh Bells and it's ballin badass babe front woman, Alexis Krauss. Sleigh Bells is a Brooklyn band creation of its instrumentalist and songwriter, Derek Miller. Both Florida natives, Miller and Krauss hooked up and headed north. Miller, who used to be in a hardcore band, creates heavy guitar riffs that are lightened by Alexis Krauss, who is able to keep it rough but sweet. It's Krauss' heavy breathing, singing, and screaming that makes Sleigh Bells one of the tightest new bands in 2k10.
And it's her killer bangs, arm tats, and shiny pants that makes her my absolute girl crush.
You'll hate yourself if you don't check them out:
