Despite the suggestion of the above picture that Call The Cops are collective of nattily dressed professional mini-golfers (and for all I know, they very well might be), they are actually a collective of nattily dressed electro-rockers.
This California five-piece make jams that are equal parts dance and rock, not unlike fellow party-starters Metro Station. On their debut EP, Motion Sickness (released last March), the band effortlessly flits between sugar-rush pop ("Room 410") and anthemic rock ("Love Like Novocaine"), always looking to add bubbling synths and propulsive beats to the mix.
Singers Justin Allen and Will Shuck are equally adept at hushed crooning and big-chorus screaming (and on the track "Motion Sickness" a bit of Auto-Tune), relaying lyrics of hook-ups and heartache.
Call The Cops are currently on the road with We The Kings and Mayday Parade as part of the Sub City Take Action Tour, which Liz Lee from My Life As Liz checked out for Buzzworthy on Monday).
