Everybody is loving Wild Beasts and their new album, Two Dancers, and we are no exception - it's an outstanding record. We caught up with them to discuss it and the lead track, ‘Hooting and Howling’. Click the photo to get the video started.
Plus, be sure to check out the playlist they've made for us. You'll be glad you did.
'17 and a half minutes consisting of long synthesized voices and over tones, piano notes altered through subtle tape manipulation consisting of placid, sustained drones that suggest stillness. When you've finished listening to this track it leaves you empty, its designed that way like rest-bite from the ever flowing 'airport'.' (Ben)
'If you listen to it in certain situations, it can sound driving and relentless, yet put into another listening context can sound weightless and delicate. It’s one of those rare pieces of music that I can listen to at any point during any given day, whether happy or sad and know that I’ll enjoy it.' (Ben)
'"Never for money, always for love" This is just the sound of pure joy, irresistible. Oft imitated. (Tom)
'"Beware of the bull, the dancing cock is right". Martin Carthy + Ken Dodd + Karl Marx.' (Tom)
'One of the most sublime pop songs I've heard in years. There are a couple of staccato guitar lines that have stuck to my hips for days, I believe they know what they're doing.' (Tom)
'Geoff Barrow is a production hero of mine, this is an example of what he can do.' (Hayden)
'Sounds like nothing else, simple electro crossed with African pop, the results are delicious.' (Hayden)
'A band favourite when on the road, it's perfect for those late nights on the motorway. His voice is soft and pin-point accurate. And if there's any justice left in this world, it should've soundtracked a lot of baby making.' (Chris)
