Exit Clov Album CoverWell, the White House is there, the capital building, and a few other important monuments (and other less interesting things), but what really makes Washington D.C. special is the fact that it’s the home of Exit Clov, a fantastic five-piece band that has become an integral part of the D.C. music scene.

Conceived in 2003, the band has since released two self-produced EPs, Saskwatch (2005) and Starfish (2004), as well as a short album recorded with the help of Jolly Roget—fittingly titled The Jolly Roget Sessions, which was released earlier this year.

Over the last three years, the band has created a legacy of uber-fun and playful pop music. Known for beautifully harmonized vocals and wildly addictive synth sounds, the band has far exceeded the traditional rock n’ roll genre.

Composed of just six tracks Respond Respond is another great EP in Clov’s whimsical music catalogue.

Songs like “Violent Berries” and “Movie Gaza” show off vocalists, Emily and Susan Hsu’s dynamic ability to harmonize. Lyrics like “Is our house still a box/ Are we all still the same” allow the twins to intertwine their voices in a deep and moving way.

In “DIY” and “MK Ultra” the band displays their neurotic rock sound, adding more rough guitar work and faster drum quips to their mix of synth and vocal harmonies. Here, the twins work together to create bouncier, more playful girl-rock songs. This attitude is shown in the lyrics of “MK Ultra”: “Tease me, police me, release me, uh oh!” and “Thrill me, fulfill me, then kill me, uh oh”. These two songs stand out as the most fun and addicting of the six on the EP.

The good thing about Exit Clov is that you don’t have to go all the way to D.C. to hear their music. Unlike the Smithsonian and the United States Treasury, you can carry their songs in your pocket and maybe even see them at a gig near you.
