If you assumed a band called Sleigh Bells would include actual sleigh bells in their music, we’re sorry to disappoint. Otherwise, behold their fourth album Jessica Rabbit, an album that continues the journey of Derek Miller’s sharp, jagged guitar riffs juxtaposed with the sweet, marshmallow-light voice of Alexis Krauss. Each song is a mish-mash of pace, emotion, and style. Just look at “Throw Me Down the Stairs”, a ravenous song with varying speeds and then smack dab in the middle, it goes from noise rock to ballad pop with an added key change. There are twists, there are turns, and they keep you interested for the long haul.
