Like most of you, I enjoy going to see musical acts play their musical songs without fear of scorpions. I hate scorpions and I hate their deadly venom. Clubs try to keep scorpions out, yet there’s no assurance, no peace for my scorpion-fearing mind. With this in mind, Mount Kimbie come forward with a bold promise: no scorpions on their upcoming North American tour, just as there were allegedly no scorpions on their 2010 album Crooks and Lovers (TMT Review) on Hotflush. But can such a promise truly be kept? Will the tricky dubstep beats be cut short by a scorpion’s mighty sting? We shall see, Mount Kimbie, we shall see.
