Yeasayer - Odd Blood

Support The Artists. BUY YOUR MUSIC! Pirates SUCK!

Yeasayer's debut 'All Hour Cymbals' was received with wide acclaim and their sophomore release 'Odd Blood' will be no different. This is a worthy followup to the first effort. The African inspired rhythms are here with 80's styled synths layered on top. This is a deeply layered journey across the many faces and moods of world music. This combined with 80's synth hooks lifted from the likes of New Order mixed into echoey distored gleeful ditties. Uplifting lyrically at times with auditory imagery, skilful masterstrokes, this is seriously crafted fare for all fans. Ambling Alp, Madder Red & Mondegreen are key tracks. O.N.E. is glorious latin tinged rubadub, a fave track for sure. These Brooklynites have upped the ante for their peers from Animal Collective, Grizzly Bear & MGMT.
 Officially released February 9th on Secretly Canadian Records. Yeasayer is currently touring Europe and will be back to tour the U.S. & Canada in April/May.
