Their name may be a head-scratcher (“chk chk chk” is what people usually call them, repeating any three sounds will suffice), but there’s no such mystery when it comes to understanding !!!’s hold on dance-party punk-funk. On Myth Takes, the Sacramento, Calif.-formed band’s latest album, !!! lays down some of the sharpest, tightest grooves the dance-rock movement has produced to date. And that’s nothing compared to the group’s live shows, in which frontman Nic Offer drives his bandmates — not to mention the members of the audience who are invited onstage — to ever-higher peaks of jack-your-body abandon.
