STOP START STOP START. START!

Wildbirds and Peacedrums are a band who I discovered a little while ago and have been quietly tracking and waiting for their album to get distribution here after it was unavailable on Amazon.com when I went to buy it. Anyway, they definitely have undertones of that whole African chic tribal biz going on which I'm getting pretty fucking sick of, but they do it in such a minimalist way (read: no A Capella!) that it eventuates into more experimental rock duo than trip to the African plains.

Here's the videoclip for new single 'There is no Light' from their new album The Snake. Beautiful example of experimenting with the 'playing live' music video and pulling it off
