We had a great chat with Alexis Krauss from Sleigh Bells. The band just dropped their new full-length Texis. We talked about all the albums that inspired the making of the album, and their favourite records of all time, including titles by Beyonce, Nine Inch Nails, Turnstile, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Caroline Polachek, and many more.
