New Music from Villagers
Long ago I raved about Becoming a Jackal, an album by Villagers that I think a lot of people really overlooked. But, now they’re back with a brand new single that is scheduled to come out on October 22nd, and with a recent tour with Grizzly Bear, I think they might finally start to break into the big time. “The Waves” is every bit as dramatic as the earlier output from the band, but this one has a different approach. For me, this tune utilizes the electronic production as its backbone, and the emphatic beauty ensues. I just picked this up on iTunes, so you too can grab it early if it suits your fancy.
