VIDEO OF THE DAY — SLEIGH BELLS: “COMEBACK KID”

“Comeback Kid,” the brand-new video from Brooklyn-based duo Sleigh Bells, blows out of the speakers like machine-gun fire as vocalist Alexis Krauss, clutching a rifle, gleefully bounces up and down on a bed. Krauss and her musical partner, Derek E. Miller, are about to release their second LP, Reign of Terror (Mom + Pop, February 21, 2012), the follow-up to their hit debut, 2010’s Treats. The new disc ranges from poppy dance anthems to heavy guitar-driven blasts to slower, moodier songs, influenced by family tragedy that has struck Miller in a big way; since the first record, his father died in a motorcycle accident, and his mother contracted cancer. But there’s still plenty of fun to be had on Reign of Terror, which is highlighted by such tracks as “Born to Lose,” “Demons,” “Road to Hell,” “Never Say Die,” “D.O.A.,” and “Leader of the Pack,” which begins with the revving of motorcycle engines in a tribute to the girl-group classic. Sleigh Bells will be at Terminal 5 on February 17 ($25.20, 8:00) with Black Bananas and Wet Witch (which includes Krauss’s fiancé, Tyler Mate). You can watch the live stream for free as part of the new Bowery Presents Live series; in addition, you can check out a full stream of the new album for a limited time here.
