Available in:
Boy Crisis was an American band that was influenced by the post-disco–post-punk sound of the early 1980s.
Based in Brooklyn, New York, Boy Crisis consisted of members Tal Rozen, Alex Kestner, Victor Vazquez, Lee Pender, and Owen Roberts. Victor Vazquez is now an MC and was formerly part of the rap group Das Racist.
While Boy Crisis were the subject of much hype and praise, they also faced strong criticism, including from Richard Hell who declared, "Boy Crisis fucking suck." Amy Phillips of Pitchfork Media also had harsh words for Boy Crisis, calling them "the absolute worst band in the world right now. Seriously." Similarly, Camille Dodero of The Village Voice referred to Boy Crisis as "everything that's wrong about the Lower East Side."
However, Sophie Eggleton of Disappear Here Magazine asserted, "I personally find them a welcome antidote to the dark, bleak realism of some of my current favourite bands." Similarly, Paul Lester of The Guardian wrote that Boy Crisis was "the hottest electronic pop group to emerge from America since, ooh, MGMT at least."
Their album was praised as "spastically seductive" with "all of the tracks [being] bangers"[17] and described as "flawless" with hooks that are "subtle yet stay for a long time" and "plenty of melody."[18]
