What's slick like electro, infectious like funk, and packed with rock 'n' roll attitude? A Spirit Animal. Does that sound like something you'd like to see live? Well, you're in luck if you happen to live in NYC or the Baltimore/Washington D.C. area. The New York band only has two shows lined up at the moment, the first of which is tonight at Cameo Gallery in Brooklyn along with Flying Cars. And THIS Sunday, May 20th, these dudes will be gracing the fine stage of Red Palace in D.C. along with Vamos and Flying Cars. Based solely off some YouTube clips I've seen, Spirit Animal puts on a solid show. Not to miss if you want a good time.
The band will soon be releasing Spiritia Animalia, the follow up to their 2010 debut LP, The Cost of Living. They're currently sharing a track from it called "Crocodile Skins" for free download. Well, that's awfully nice of them, and...wait...and they're also sharing a killer remix of the song by Big Black Delta, the solo project of Jonathan Bates (Mellowdrone, ex-M83). Internet high five.
In the hands of Big Black Delta, "Crocodile Skins" goes from punky funk rock to blissful yet eerie psychedelic electropop.
