From Chester French to Passion Pit, it's been a good year for geeks with beats. This pair of freaky Hollywood dudes are enjoying a doofy summer micro-hit with "I'm in Miami Bitch," an electro-crunk spoof of South Beach party life. The rest of their debut is all sleazy jams, booty boasts and enough irony to clog your Jacuzzi ("Grandma's cookin' breakfast, she makes pancakes the best/Check my MySpace, and I got a lot of friend requests"). The drunk's cri de coeur, "Shots" (featuring Lil Jon), is admirably bonkers, but you can only hear hipsters yell about their dicks so many times before brain rigor mortis sets in, and we don't mean the good kind.
