Why do we like this?

Some four months after their ripper debut track "Samurai" hit the interwebs, Florida synth-pop trio X Priest X are back with the pulsating "Dark Sun."

Unlike their first release that was very similar to Grimes (courtesy of young vocalistMadeline Priest's cooing innocence), "Dark Sun" is rooted in the 80s electro pop pioneered by the likes of Human League and Ultravox.

While the production is great, it's Priest's delicate and harmonious voice that gives X Priest X the edge over their counterparts. Priest has it all; she's young, beautiful, and most importantly, ridiculously talented, and it shouldn't be long before X Priest X are more than just an internet favorite.
