WOUNDED
LION - "Creatures in the Cave" 7" (GGGR-028).
WOUNDED
LION.
A follow up to their sadly out of
print debut single "Carol Cloud" released on S-S,
WOUNDED LION
offer two new songs. "Creatures in the Cave" is an
addictive ballad tumbling in from left field,
"Wyld Parrots" throws down a lo-fi Talking Heads (with
a side of Wipers) vibe, and is impossible
to be spun under three or four times in row. Limited to 550
copies.
MP3: WOUNDED LION - "Wyld
Parrots" (from
the "Creatures in the Cave" 7").
select reviews:
Citizen
Dick:
This little ditty is
borderline campfire singalong, except its loaded with
string-breaking guitar treble. The LA based garage sound
isnt a new thing, but theres something identifiable
with this track that makes it different. To me, its
the absolutely stomping palm muted rhythm of the tracks
center section. Cymbals crash and danceable madness
ensues. I guess, in short, its difficult not to like
this song. Its bruising and offsetting in all the
right ways. In the Red records are fabulous at
signing these kinds of acts, and if youre a fan you really
dont need to look any further than their website HERE.
Blank Dogs, The Intelligence, The Hunches, etc. Wounded
Lion fits right in, and Ive been playing this song all day.
