Mischievous pop duo Dan le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip returns to the ad-hoc dance floor with the new LP The Logic of Chance. Made up of Daniel Stephens & David Peter Meads, these Essex boys will deliver their second album through Rob Da Bank’s Sunday Best label.
The duo has received nothing but praise for earlier releases, racking up two top forty hits, massive views of their videos on YouTube and remixes of artists like Bat For Lashes, Biffy Clyro and Micachu.
The new album appears to be more socially aware with tracks like ‘Great Britain’, a commentary on the growing knife crime sweeping the UK, the politically vocal ‘Stake A Claim’ and the ironic ‘Last Train Home’, all featured on the upcoming LP.
We love artists that don’t take themselves too seriously, and this pair bathes in scathing humor and irony. Just have a look at this hilarious mock video clip in 2008 which shows them auditioning for Britain’s X- Factor and check out their video for their first single here:
The Logic of Chance is released on the 30th of March.
