"A straight-ahead R&B jam driven by snaking bass and club-primed drums." - The FADER
"...sultry and sweat-soaked single "Special Affair," which finds leading lady Syd Tha Kid's breathy vox riding a creeping bass groove and minimal guitar struts on the hook, making for a seductive treat to score those in-between-the-sheets moments." - Okayplayer
"[Syd] lays down a darker, more sultry vibe as she laces the track with breathy, mood setting vocals..." - VIBE

The Internet - Los Angeles-based, R&B/soul band fronted by Syd and Matt Martians - will release their brand new album, Ego Death, on June 29th (Columbia Records).  To celebrate the anticipated release, the band will be hitting the East Coast at the end of the month to play three very special New York shows, including opening for British electro-dance duo, Basement Jaxx, at SummerStage in Central Park on July 1st. It'll be the first time fans will hear the new material, live, with the full Internet band. See below for the show's official flyer and show dates.
Today, the band has also unveiled a glimpse into their world recording at home, along with a snippet of the Ego Death track "Gabby," featuring Janelle Monáe.  PRESS HERE<http://smarturl.it/InternetMTB> to watch and listen.
Additionally, starting this week, the band will also be live streaming sneak peeks and behind the scenes content via their Periscope account. PRESS HERE<https://twitter.com/intanetz> to follow the band on Twitter for live updates. Trust us when we tell you - you won't wanna miss these...
Although lead by the core duo of Syd and Matt, when they play live, The Internet is a full-fledged, stomp 'n soul band - a six-person outfit whose youngest member is 17.  They began playing as a full band in order to tour behind their sophomore album, Feel Good, which allowed all the band members to contribute their talents to Ego Death.  As such, the band's third record is their most evolved to date, featuring guest appearances from the likes of Janelle Monae, Tyler, the Creator, and Vic Mensa. It's a heady mix of confessions and come-ons, shiny Rhodes keyboard glimmers, chugging drums, slinking bass lines, and Syd's honeyed voice anchoring the mix - all played by musicians who are carrying the soul torch for the new generation.
