뉴욕발 섹슈얼, 그리고 레트로 아방가르드하고 세련된 미래음악의 지표를 보여주는 현시점 최고의 유망주, MGMT를 쏙 빼닮은 몽환적인 씬스팝의 절정! 뉴욕발 인디 밴드의 스타일을 설명하고자 한다면 늘 어느 정도의 ‘도구’가 필요하다. 우선 가장 쉽게 가는 방법은 연상되는 또다른 뮤지션을 동원하는 것인데, 체어리프트의 경우 유사 아티스트를 거론하는 일역시도 사실 그리 만만하지 않다. 누군가는 또다른 MGMT라고도 하고, 누군가는 벨벳 언더그라운드"와 니코"를 상기하게 만든다고도 하고, 누군가는 콕토 트윈스와 큐어가 동시에 떠오른다 말하기도 한다. 한편 이들을 소개한 어느 매체는 “살바도르 달리가 들었다면 꽤 좋아했을 것”이라고 덧붙인 바 있다. 그만큼 복잡하고 다채로운 양식을 추구하고 있다는 의미일 것이고, 여기저기서 가져오고 섞어 완성한 사운드는 결국 비현실적이거나 초현실적으로 들리고 있다는 의미일 것이다. .... ....
All the garbage that you have thrown away Is waiting somewhere a million miles away Your condoms and your VCR Your ziploc bags and father's car Dark and silent it waits for you ahead

Making so much garbage each and every day We make this shit for you to throw away In plastic rooms in factories for you to dispose of as you please Because dark and silent it waits for you ahead

Near the east Waverly Hills, your hair pinned back In previous lives, we were frozen sticks But these aren't so rigid I throw off my coat to feel this January air
They wrote a book for the two of us To read our books on The darkest light before a darker night We slip underwater The bridge disappears, the deer hunt is in the frigid air
