The Boggs - 'Arm In Arm'

As one of the independent bands that helped create the New York scene of 2001 along with the likes of The Rapture, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Interpol, The Boggs’ 'Arm In Arm' shows no willingness to repent towards traditions. Taken from their forthcoming album ‘Forts’, Jason Friedman’s raw recording techniques and artsy post-punk folk reverences endear towards the ear. A simple acoustic blues beat-down cascades into a phenomenal new-wave of throbbing Adam and The Ants drumming and scaled down Arcade Fire inspired instrumental fills leaving a lyrical lunar howl to drool over.

Released 25/02/08 on Tangled Up.
