Sunflower Bean Readies Debut Album

beanThere’s been some good buzz around Sunflower Bean, and it looks like the group is finally ready to offer their debut to listeners. My ears definitely hear the hooks and the reasons for such quick rising adoration; I dig the sweet vocal performance of Julia on this track…akin to a young D. Harry.The group hit you hard and fast with their undeniable catchiness, then they just continue to pile it on for the rest of the track. This Brooklyn trio will release their debut, Human Ceremony, on February 5th of next year via Fat Possum.

Wicked Hit from Sunflower Bean

sunSunflower Bean is a fairly new act if one was to go by the information passed our way, but I’m already interested to see what direction they’re heading.  This single has two souls, though they both seem to be haunted by different directions.  You’ll get the female fronted post-rock, with this entrancing yelp at the end of the syllables.  Then they switch it into more of a psychedelic realm, with a different twist on the music; these moments have more of a brooding fuzz to them, rather than the emphatic yelping of it’s counterpart. It’ll be interesting to see what comes next; there’s lots of room for them to grow.
