Truly embracing the mystique of the season, duo Animal, Surrender! shares their latest single “Misswanderer.” Discordant chords clash beautifully on a (real) organ along with bassist Peter Kerlin’s 8-string (electric) bass (I didn’t even know they came with 8 strings). The lyrics are those that you feel in your soul as you listen (or not, if you have no internal monologue), and, frankly I think a testament to the band. Here’s an even more cryptic snippet from Kerlin:
“This song is an ode to folks who against their better judgment follow an idea, impulse, obsession, or compulsion off the trail and deep into the bush, finding themselves lost, in a state they were their whole life warned against; a personal hell or a place of wonder and openness.”
A refutation on “waaaahhhh you need lyrics in a song;” you’ll be drawn in deep to Animal, Surrender! and I’m not sure if they’re gonna let you out.
You can hear “Misswanderer” embedded below from the band’s Bandcamp and over on Spotify. Their album A Boot for Every Bane is out September 26th, so be sure to pre-order and pre-load that if you’re digging these dulcet tones.
