CSS!

Formed in 2003 in San Paulo, Brazil, CSS (which stands for Cansei de Ser Sexy, Portuguese for “Tired of Being Sexy”), released their self-entitled debut CD on Sub Pop Records in 2006. Early on, The New York Times described CSS as, “a gleeful throwback to early-1980s art-school pop,” on whose debut album, “smart, insubordinate fun reigns…” The Guardian pegged them as, “an unlikely, brilliantly wrong fusion of Tom Tom Club, dance culture and the Fall.” Under the Radar commented on Cansei de Ser Sexy, “CSS’s debut is the real deal: eleven cuts of infectiously syncopated, tuneful post-punk that just may be the summer’s perfect soundtrack.” in late 2007 the band’s “Music is My Hot, Hot Sex” was used in a worldwide iPod Touch ad, driving the song, nearly a year-and-a-half after its release, to become the highest charting single by a Brazilian band in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. CSS can be seen touring their new release Donkey in Australia in 2009.
