With ever growing popularity, Black Kids have planted their flag into the heart of the indie-pop scene, being one of the most talked about bands online, securing a high ranking on The Hype Machine's most popular artist list, along with of Last.fm's "Top Artist Movers of the Week". Pitchfork Media also posted them under their "Best New Music" category earlier this month. The band is a formidable force, as their Ep "Wizard of Ahhs" shows, which draws influences from other groups like The Smiths, Prince, New Order, and even Motown, and can be fully downloaded from their myspace. But Black Kids still stand without any record label, their Ep being self recorded. Many labels have made offers, so they will now have to make the choice of staying in the studio and recording more material or going on tour to further promote themselves.
