LISTEN: Cats In the Basement - "godlovesex"


MP3: Cats In the Basement - "godslovesex"

If Paul Simon started hanging out with The E Street Band at the beach during the day and salsa and jazz clubs at night, they'd probably wind up creating something that sounded a bit like this. With bits of surf rock, ska, jazz, salsa, and afropop mixed together, it's hard not to get swept up in its zestful charm. It's something entirely fresh and new, not something we're used to hearing. Good luck trying to accurately define this, though the band probably say it best when they describe their sound as "surf waltz pop."

"godlovesex" is from Cats In the Basement's new record DOO BEE DOO LA DEE DAY DUM BE DUM DRINK YOUR BLOOD, out now on Atlas/Finch House.
