Serious Contenders: Electric Six, "Danger! High Voltage"



It's important to commit to a bit, and I think Electric Six knows that perfectly well. Every song I've ever heard from them, they throw themselves heedlessly into, including this early gem, where you really believe that the passion can be responsible for a power overload of some kind. The song is helped along by a pulsing disco bass, a shockwave guitar, and a manic guest vocal by an uncredited Jack White. You can't help wanting to move when you hear this song. It puts all its energy right through you, at your peril.
