Brooklyn NY, United States (2004 – present)
Arms is the moniker of Todd Goldstein, better-known for being the guitarist of the now defunct Brooklyn-based band Harlem Shakes. Arms’ full-length debut, Kids Aflame, was originally given an UK-only release in 2008 and was later re-released in the US on October 27th, 2009.
Arms first started taking shape in 2004 but made its first official release with Shitty Little Disco, an EP self-released in 2006. The debut album was recorded over a period of three years, where Goldstein pieced together the record with a single microphone and a laptop in a series of rickety bedroom recording spaces, giving the record a lo-fi atmosphere that combine noise, the primacy of melody, and the timelessness of melancholy pop music.

Another musical genius who is doomed to be a critical success and major inspiration for many others that follow but will never achieve the public recognition or commercial success he should! Brilliant album that never fails to surprise and lift. Come to the UK again soon....By the way - who are these other impostors?
