Only now getting the recognition for their obscure take on pop music, Wild Beasts are supporting such artists as Foals, Vampire Weekend and Tricky.
Forming in 2002 and after a number of 7" limited singles, they were signed to Domino Records in the February of 2007. With a label that already has the great Eugene McGuinness, Arctic Monkeys and The Kills signed, they have definatly picked a very respected and well run choice.
'Limbo,Panto' the bands debut full length hit stores in June this year. HOW It wasn't on the shortlist for the Murcury Music Prize won by SHIT Elbow is completely beyond me, but this album Is one of the best of this year, with Hayden Thrope, Wild Beasts have a singer with a voice matching Jeff Bukcley vibrato vocals and a male Kate Bush eary tones.
New single 'Brave Bulging Buoyant Clairvoyants' a re-release of their first single on Bad Sneakers Records will be the next to drop from 'Limbo, Panto'.
You can catch the band supporting Foals on their upcoming tour, and also Vampire Weekend.
