The other day I was introduced to the band The Wild Beasts, via a post from the Coudal Partner’s Blended Feed, regarding their recently released video for “Brave Bulging Bouyant Clairvoyants.” Brenda and I immediately remarked that these boys from Kendal seemed like “our people.”

I don’t think there is a better feeling than finding a new band that is exactly what you are looking for, and expresses your current zeitgeist perfectly. The song “The Devil’s Crayon” is that for me at the moment.

Just beautiful. A little peeved that I can’t get their album in the states yet, so for now I am making due with mp3s ripped from Youtube videos. Here’s to the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
