Shit. Why didn’t someone tell me about Wild Beasts in 2004? I’m all about the dramatic falsetto and Hayden Thorp has got it down.
Instead, I have to play catch up on the first two albums, Limbo, Panto (2008) and Two Dancers (2009). But you can be assured, that like the many fans devoted to these London indies, I have been engulfing myself in their newest LP, Smother (2011), which explores sex and brutality.
If you’re stoked to see this artful and engaging band live, your chance has come, my friend. We are giving away a pair of tickets to the Saturday, July 16th show at the 9:30 club.
Enter to win by disclosing your most brutal sex story in the comments to this post. (You can make it up, but make it juicy.) We’ll choose our filthy, dirty winner Friday (7/15) at noon.
