The Carps "Heaven's Gates & Hell's Flames (Redux) feat. The Cool Kids"

• Words: Bryant Rutledge
• Label: URBNET

Visit The Carps MySpace page, and you'll find the Scarborough, Toronto-based duo's music described as "punk rock with a gun to R&B's head on the dancefloor." Their forthcoming EP, Waves and Shambles, blends programmed beats with chugging guitars and covers every topic from virginity to black power. For a remix version of the EP's single "Heaven's Gates & Hell's Flames," the duo enlisted rising hip-hop stars The Cool Kids, who sing, rap, and croon all over the music.
