Electro-Punk

 

Legend

ModPods are a post-punk, electro-dance trio fronted by Myriad Slits. They have gained notoriety in the Los Angeles music underground, namely in the arts, queer and femme scenes. Mindee Jorgensen and Daniel Guzman trade between bass, drums and guitar interweaving live instrumental energy with Myriad’s erratic electronic beats, powerful vocals and cutting lyrics. This creates a unique and dynamic live show. Influenced by Wynne Greenwood, Talking Heads, B-52s, Radiohead, The Slits, Melvins, and Xray Spex, ModPods create controlled danceable chaos of computer beats, effected guitars, deep bass and hard drums. The soundscape creates an artful and gritty backdrop to Myriad’s soulful and fierce vocals. We Are So, ModPods’ 2014 digital EP was re-released by Woody Records on cassette tape in 2016. In 2017 ModPods made their full-length debut with No Strut, released with Los Angeles label Animales de Estereo. No Stut caught the attention of Melvins’ drummer Dale Crover who included the album in his picks for favorite music of 2017 for RevolverMag.com. In the summer of 2018, ModPods were honored to be direct support for the legendary Melvins, touring with them in the US and Canada. With the support of Animales de Estereo ModPods have released two music videos, produced by the band and label owner Jesse Carbajal. The video for “BFFFF” is a colorful, escapist, dream-like walk through eye candy. The “Weepies” video is a dark trip into the void and premiered by L.A. Weekly in June 2018. In 2019 ModPods hit the studio to record their 2nd full length, Ma'am, with engineer Andrew Parra of Freedom Curse. After putting production on hold for the global pandemic, they got back in the studio to finish, and Ma'am was released January 2022.
