Fuq, I hate discovering a great new band at 1:37 a.m. on a work night.

[@theastrologyshop663]

They totally blew me away at The Roundhouse. As an old London geezer who is bored with copy bands, such originality , talent and passion is not to miss. Amazing, really grateful to have experienced such talent.

[@irishofling2300]

Polica are great live, saw them in Munich

[@facilegoose9347]

If you can see them live, do. not. pass. them. up. Easily one of the most intense and best produced shows you can catch, Polica are exceptional.

[@patrickhawkinson5427]

Hard to identify an MVP in this four-piece. Each member so vital to the sound.

[@Sternodox]

It blows my mind how good this band is live. Saw 'em last night and was hypnotized. Love the way Channy sings ... and moves.

[@teslatrooper]

Saw them last week, this is still true.

[@KyleTheLEGOMaster]

Ditto

[@blunote47]

She has the TC-Helicon Voice Live 3 plus the MP-75 mike and uses it astoundingly. Really digging this band. Thanks again KEXP!

[@irishofling2300]

Polica will be 1 of my favs and always will ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@threehundredwords]

Wow, it's been a few months since KEXP has impressed me with a band I'd not heard of (no idea how I missed their SXSW performance). Very alluring, they've sold themselves to me, I'm buying into them 100%.

[@Flippears]

Love Polica. Spent hours alone with this band.

[@nparasida]

Ugh so good. I can't wait to see them live someday. Heavenly.

[@ange_109]

I still remember seeing you live at Shepherds Bush London. As magical as ever 🥺

[@jonathanwggoodal9921]

Passion for their craft is all I hear..it's beautiful like her 😍

[@francitron_art_3]

they're really amazing!!! I Love this performance :)

[@digitalbladeca]

Wow! That's an inspirational performance!

[@alxkmlr1]

I've loved this band from the start. Unique all around and Channy is just mesmerizing. Seeing them live three times I'm always completely enchanted by her voice and presence. #swoon

[@laurentux1]

I love her voice!!! Amazing group............

[@andymbrunton]

This group is amazing

[@josephcaldwell9480]

Wow what an awesome voice

[@AZZAHMAN]

I saw them at 9:30 club and they killed it. Her voice haunts my soul to put in a nutshell...

[@Crambo90ify]

Thanks XEXP. You had me at "Dark Star".

[@TamuiaAteuIta]

Suave, doce, tenso, maravilhoso. Simplesmente fantástico. Muito bom

[@benradtke7321]

love this band. They are getting better. (not that they were bad before) Love Channy! Such a great voice, and great performer. And gorgeous!

[@andrebellamy5208]

She is quite lovely. But the funky bass is even lovelier

[@TheZenedd]

Ben Radtke wow the y realy have grown , great from the start , but even better now-----yes

[@SoilentGr33n]

In the first song the bass player does move through the verse/chorus structure, but he never, ever plays the same thing twice. It's hypnotizing

[@B_rye8]

warrior lord is my favorite

[@MrLasso15]

love this band

[@dam.ian.]

I saw them live last month, many great, new songs. Love it

[@dudestyle01]

Poliça are the bomb!

[@fatyowls]

Beautiful!

[@gregkern6621]

Minneapolis represent =P Keep up the good work. You guys are great!

[@leodydante]

I'M IN LOVE!!!

[@damiankirkwood7924]

theyre trippy as fuck love it

[@clarisse7664]

so good ! love from france

[@RenDeVerloren]

Fan-fuckin'-tastic. So many loves.

[@SaeEDKh313]

just listened to "united crushers" they are really talented

[@priser24]

Started listening to them in May, only to find out they played my town two weeks prior.: (

[@TeoTull]

This was worth waiting for! So sorry I did not see them live when I had the chance :( What a voice!

[@BigBlack81]

I give this band points for not using a guitar. Always seek bands that find ways to make music without guitars. Though I'd love to know the rest of the kit they use. So expansive for an efficient use of notes, I would love to see how much they are actually using.

[@SuperTrancend]

Hey I must be getting old I remember the last time these guys were on here!

[@shaunhamilton8217]

Nice! Reminds me a bit of Little Dragon mixed with Portishead (at times).

[@wrightcarl1181]

They've grown even better live, Portishead mark 2. They are the only band with this sound at the moment, they are unique. Both albums are great. Preferred her shorter hair though :p

[@fluxhaus]

Brilliant!

[@Nugatory23]

Love it!

[@atWarpLoT]

When you finally make it home.. I'll be ready to freak and moan. :3

[@irishofling2300]

you saved my life

[@Urubu_news_00_28]

Que som de primeira qualidade, diferente de tudo que já vi. Muito bom!!

[@laughingbuddhaa]

Really nice - you guy's should make it over to London :)

[@mastertapesband2767]

i adore this kitty

[@X_-kk1bl]

Шикарная басс партия

[@jackestado]

voz perfeita, muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuito bom

[@ВладЦызальпинскыйъ]

With affection from snowy Russia

[@claraequitygps5745]

WOWW ...

[@dudestyle01]

When are Poliça playing London next?.... We're coming and there will be a lot of high grade narcotics involved.

[@MattsDT]

Mas los escucho, mas los amo. Great Regret es excelente.

[@ricardicolas]

keyboards... but where?

[@jmcmillon22]

Watched the whole video and still not sure if the drummer is Roy from the office

[@angelvintage6992]

BENDITO EL DÍA QUE CONOCÍ ESTA MUSIQUITA INTERGALACTICA!!

[@silentqueue2344]

I just came over from watching a live performance of 'Farewell' from Boris, so the one drummer's shirt stood out: "Drone, Not Drones". This band is really good, by the way.

[@serr7153]

chicly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love female vocal

[@sergedeblaere7207]

Anyone know what gadget Channy is using at 3:04 for her vocal effects?

[@johnrainmcmanus6319]

New York: please come and own this town!

[@sebastop1]

One hundred thousand of the views are mine!!!!

[@gverdel]

... She must be the secret child of Robin Guthrie and Elizabeth Fraser. Astonishing band, wish I had discovered them sooner

[@Hallh2008]

Me gusta mucho esta bandita

[@ymsekisen]

Guys, do any of you knwo where I can get a Value Pack? I am so anxiously looking for one. Big, volumous Value Pack, you know??

[@kato0291]

One of few dual-drummer setups that's totally tasteful and unshowy.

[@Guillotineman]

That is a rare feat indeed.

[@vanemanocho]

Amongster 21:00

[@cubozoaire]

Mention spéciale pour Raw edit ;)

[@triskut]

How would one pronounce their name?

[@sebastop1]

Polissa...

[@NibsNiven]

Where is the synth player?

[@andymbrunton]

Female Thom Yorke

[@ChadGlassify]

"poe-LEE-sah"

[@edelaire4268]

poe-LEE-sah... NOT poe-lee-SAH (the feather still floats)

[@zylan98]

what language are they singing in? this is beautiful

[@baalzeroo]

Not sure if serious

[@zylan98]

Well, I'm serious

[@0211brucetube]

Erik Fruto English bro. Just with a bit of autotune, so the vox are performed in a more flowing fashion

[@zylan98]

Bruce Tollafield Oh!

[@Theonewhoclimbs28]

Bruce Tollafield Oh, there's plenty of autotune there but these guys always seem to use it a bit smarter than most people. She uses is almost like a guitarist might use a tremolo bar.

[@wujekcientariposta]

should not buy tickets at new years eve at 2 in the morning

[@davidvaknin3801]

cuz one drummer is never enough

[@SilenII]

have u ever heard anything progressive? ;)

[@coryfoster6220]

who the hell downvoted this

[@cameronroot]

Cool jams but too much vocal distortion for my taste.. I like to hear what a person's voice really sounds like, that raw talent needs to shine in a voice!

[@videodrone101]

+Cameron Root - And she purposely mumbles the words. I don't know who started that shit, but too many so- called singers do it these days. it annoying!

[@harrytanner9215]

Their new album is a lot purer. "United Crushers" I recommend "Lime Habit"
