Music Video: Mobylettes - Immer Schlimmer

Music of decades past is always a good source of inspiration.  Indeed, regular readers of this blog will note that modern artists from around the world sup heartily at the trough of retro sounds; see also Ruben Cossani, Movits!, Caravan Palace, and others.  Today's artists, German band Mobylettes, take the smooth female vocal stylings of the 1960s, mix it with elements of doo wop, and bring them up to date with a wink and a nod.  They sometimes sound like a German version of Pizzicato Five.  With Immer Schlimmer, Mobylettes certainly share some of Pizzicato Five's sense of irony, although with a somewhat darker edge at times.
