edmonton has wet secrets

there's not a lot of subtlety to the wet secrets, a synth rock marching band from edmonton, alberta, but there is a healthy spirit of defiance punctuated by humor - at times raunchy, such as, for instance, the title of one of their new songs: "i teabagged myself" - and a touch of the absurd. one of our favorites off their new album, rock fantasy, is an infectious & propulsive primer on facial hair, "grow your own fucking moustache, asshole," in which, as is the case on much of the album, the beat and the horns and the lyrics and the shouted, sing-along vocals will in no time flat have you up and moving, taking life a little less seriously, if only for five or so minutes. and that's all right by us.

the wet secrets - grow your own fucking moustache, asshole








the best part? the band has put out a call for moustaches and facial hair, real & wished for, to use in their upcoming video for the song. submit yourself here. & listen to some more from the wet secrets here and here.
