ACL Battles: CSS vs. Man Man
Round two of our ACL battles pits Brazilian dance/pop band CSS vs. Philly artist Man Man. This is our earliest battle of the festival weekend with both bands playing at 3:30 on Saturday. CSS will be gettin’ it down on the AT&T Blue Room stage while Man Man plays on the Dell stage. So the question is simple: Power pop goodness from the ipod commercial makin’ CSS or get a little more intense with war paint wearin’ Man Man? Tell us who you’re seeing and why. Both bands most recent singles are below:

Since I will be dancing at Hot Chip, I may as well keep up the streak and go head over to CSS; I can also brush up on my Portuguese.
You should consider doing a match-up between staying at ACL and heading to Mohawk to catch Sunset Rubdown.
