Handsome Furs – No Feelings
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
If you didn’t know, I love the Handsome Furs. The husband/wife duo started out as a side project for Wolf Parade co-frontman Dan Boeckner but has grown into what seems like his a fulltime job for him. While the sound will be familiar to fans of WP, it’s fun and dancey in a way that his other band (with their proggy inclinations) rarely approaches. They’re also great live (and I’ve seen them something like 7 times to prove it).
Their new LP, Sound Kapital has taken a few spins to grow on me, it’s the first that was written on keyboard instead of guitar, and the songs are admittedly even more dancefloor ready than before. But like their first two albums I’m finding that it’s compulsively listenable. Sound Kapital will be out June 28 but you can pre-order the LP now and download it right now.
