Two Dancers has all the hallmarks of an incredible band lost in their own world. Sonically it is a tightrope walk of Hayden Thorpe's falsetto and the high drama of the band playing a loose almost ambient rock: quicksilver guitar lines and heartbeat drumming.
The whole things sounds incredibly English - but not the flag waving oompah of britpop. Wild Beats are from Kendal and Two Dancers sounds like mists, fells, stone and strange characters coming to terms with secrets they wished they never knew.
Through it all runs an incredible sense of excitement and romantic yearning. Forget all the young pretenders who think they sound like the smiths and the jam and sing about supermarkets - Wild Beasts are the real thing, epic, eccentric and individual
Having seen WB on jools holland I immediately bought the album on line. This album is definetaly worth buying. Musically the album is fantastic, even if it were an instrumental it would be enjoyable. Both singers are fantastic, I couldn't pick a favourite track at the moment. You can't skip a track, one of my favourite albums of the year.
